EB-2 Dismissed — Software Development (2018): the language in the labor certification was deemed invalid

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the language in the labor certification was deemed invalid for an EB-2 petition. The phrase 'Any suitable combination of education and experience is acceptable' was interpreted as allowing for qualifications less than the required single bachelor's degree plus five years of experience, which is the minimum standard for an advanced degree equivalent.
