EB-1C Remanded — Cruise Line Industry: the case was remanded due to a significant procedural error
Decision Summary
The case was remanded due to a significant procedural error by the service center director. After initially approving the petition, the director used an improper "Government Motion to Reopen" to issue a denial, instead of following the legally required procedure of issuing a "notice of intent to revoke" as mandated by regulation. The AAO withdrew the director's decision and sent the case back to be handled with the correct procedural actions.
