dismissed EB-1B Case: Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the job offer was for a permanent position as required by regulation. The offer was for a one-year term with a specific end date, subject to renewal, which does not meet the regulatory definition of a position with an 'indefinite or unlimited duration' where employment continues unless there is good cause for termination.
