dismissed EB-2 Case: Information Technology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the director determined the beneficiary did not possess a U.S. master's degree or its foreign equivalent. The decision affirmed that the beneficiary's three-year Indian bachelor's degree, even when combined with a post-graduate diploma and a master's degree, does not meet the baseline requirement of a U.S. baccalaureate equivalent, which is generally considered a four-year degree.
