dismissed EB-2 Case: Product Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the associated labor certification (ETA Form 9089) failed to demonstrate that the job requires a professional holding an advanced degree or an alien of exceptional ability. The form's listed requirement of 'any suitable combination of education/training and/or experience' was deemed insufficient for the requested EB-2 classification. The petitioner's attempt to re-characterize the petition on appeal was rejected, as material changes cannot be made to a deficient petition after filing.
