Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide a valid employment contract meeting regulatory requirements. While the AAO acknowledged the director erred on the timing of when the service period begins, it found the submitted contract itself was deficient and contradictory, and therefore did not meet the petitioner's evidentiary burden.
