dismissed EB-1B Case: Medicine
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the job offer was for a permanent position. The employment letter contained an "at-will" clause, allowing for termination at any time, which contradicts the regulatory definition of a permanent position requiring an expectation of continued employment unless there is good cause for termination.
