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 discuss the substance of the Petitioner's proposed endeavor; SCOPS had already found him to qualify for the EB-2 classification but denied the discretionary NIW.

Notable
This appeal was dismissed entirely on a procedural signature-validity ground, not on the merits of the NIW prongs. The AAO found the appellate Form I-290B and Form G-28 signatures were electronically duplicated images matching an earlier 'Statement of Intent,' rendering the appeal improperly filed by a party without standing; the AAO never reached the substantive national-interest-waiver analysis.
