EB-2 Dismissed — Accounting: the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree combined with a professional accounting membership was not found to be equivalent to a U.S. four-year baccalaureate degree. A U.S. baccalaureate or its foreign equivalent is the minimum educational requirement to qualify for the EB-2 category, even under the alternative formulation of a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience.
