Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed primarily because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the job offer was for a 'permanent' position as required by regulation. The employment offer specified a twelve-month, annually renewable term contingent on performance and funding, which the AAO determined was not a position of indefinite duration, citing the university's own 'at will' employment policies. The lack of a qualifying permanent job offer was a sufficient basis for denial.
