sustained EB-1B Case: Academic Research
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, concluding that the petitioner's 'at will' employment policies found on its website were inconsistent with the permanent job offer. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the express terms within the written job offer letter, which stated the position was for an 'indefinite or unlimited duration,' satisfied the regulatory requirements for a permanent position and took precedence over the general website policies.
