This is an AAO appeal decision — a case denied once and appealed. It shows how the framework is applied; it is not the filing population.
The Petitioner, a general and operations manager, sought an EB-2 advanced degree classification with a national interest waiver, though the specifics of his proposed endeavor were not discussed on the merits in this motion decision.

Notable
This decision addresses only a motion to reconsider a prior summary dismissal of the appeal; the AAO explicitly declined to reach the merits of the underlying NIW petition, finding the Petitioner failed to show the prior summary dismissal was legally or factually erroneous. The Petitioner had merely resubmitted his RFE response verbatim on the original appeal, leading to summary dismissal, and on motion raised merits arguments rather than challenging the summary dismissal itself.
