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 decision does not describe the specific endeavor; it only confirms the Petitioner sought an EB-2 national interest waiver, previously denied on eligibility grounds.

Notable
This is a third combined motion to reopen and reconsider following an original appeal dismissal and two prior combined motions; the AAO does not reach the merits of the NIW prongs at all, dismissing solely on procedural grounds (no new facts/evidence for reopening; no allegation that prior decision misapplied law for reconsideration).
