sustained EB-1C Case: Telecommunications
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the director incorrectly calculated the three-year look-back period from the beneficiary's most recent L-1A entry. The AAO clarified that the relevant period should be calculated from the beneficiary's initial change of status to L-1A, and within that correct timeframe, the beneficiary did meet the requirement of one year of qualifying foreign employment.
Criteria Discussed
