dismissed EB-2 Case: Software Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary possesses a qualifying U.S. advanced degree. The director denied the petition on the grounds that the beneficiary's master's degree was from an unaccredited U.S. institution. The AAO upheld the director's decision, concluding that the degree did not satisfy the requirements for the requested preference classification.
