dismissed EB-2 Case: Software Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree was not considered equivalent to a U.S. four-year baccalaureate degree. This is a foundational requirement for the EB-2 category, which necessitates either an advanced degree or a U.S. baccalaureate degree (or its foreign equivalent) plus five years of progressive experience.
