sustained EB-1B Case: Academic Research
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, finding the petitioner had not established a permanent job offer. The AAO sustained the appeal, concluding that the position's indefinite term and the provision for termination only for "good cause" met the regulatory definition of permanent, even with a clause about potential termination for lack of general funding.
