dismissed EB-2 Case: Business Analysis
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree, even when combined with a professional accounting membership, was not found to be equivalent to a U.S. four-year baccalaureate degree. This foundational U.S. bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent is a prerequisite for an alien to qualify as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, including through the 'bachelor's plus five years of experience' path.
Criteria Discussed
Advanced Degree Requirement Foreign Degree Equivalency Bachelor'S Degree Plus Five Years Experience
