EB-1B Dismissed โ Molecular Biology (2005): did not establish the job offer was for a 'permanent'
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the job offer was for a 'permanent' position as defined by regulations. The offer letter described the position as 'at will,' meaning it could be terminated without cause. This contradicts the regulatory requirement for a permanent position, which necessitates an expectation of continued employment unless there is good cause for termination.
