EB-2 Dismissed — Software Engineering (2005): the beneficiary did not possess a U.S

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary did not possess a U.S. baccalaureate degree or a foreign equivalent, which is a prerequisite for establishing the equivalency of a master's degree through work experience. The AAO found that the beneficiary's three-year degree from India was not equivalent to a four-year U.S. bachelor's degree, citing Matter of Shah. The credential evaluations provided were deemed inconsistent with the record and unpersuasive.
