EB-2 Dismissed — Culinary Arts (2010): the job offer on the associated labor certification (ETA
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the job offer on the associated labor certification (ETA Form 9089) did not demonstrate that the position of a sushi and Korean food chef requires a professional with an advanced degree or an alien of exceptional ability. The AAO upheld the director's finding, referencing the Department of Labor's occupational classification for a 'restaurant cook,' which falls into a job zone that does not require the qualifications for an EB-2 petition.
