remanded EB-2 Case: Soccer Coaching
Decision Summary
The director's denial based on the petitioner's ability to pay was withdrawn because the petitioner established it had paid an independent contractor more than the proffered wage for the same services in the priority year. The case was remanded for the director to request evidence of the ability to pay for subsequent years and to also determine if the soccer coach position qualifies for the EB-2 category as a professional holding an advanced degree or an alien of exceptional ability.
Criteria Discussed
