EB-2 Dismissed — Occupational Therapy (2015): the beneficiary did not meet the educational requirements

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary did not meet the educational requirements for the EB-2 classification. The certified labor certification required a master's degree, but the beneficiary possessed a foreign bachelor's degree. The petitioner's credential evaluations claiming this degree was equivalent to a U.S. master's were not persuasive, as the beneficiary's transcripts did not show completion of graduate-level coursework.
