EB-2 Dismissed — Software Engineering (2012): the job requirements listed on the labor certification
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the job requirements listed on the labor certification (Form ETA 750) did not meet the regulatory standard for a position requiring an advanced degree. The form specified a requirement of a bachelor's degree and two years of experience, which is not equivalent to a master's degree or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience as required for the EB-2 visa category.
