EB-2 Sustained — Orthotics And Prosthetics (2011): the director denied the petition, finding the beneficiary

Decision Summary

The director denied the petition, finding the beneficiary did not possess a U.S. baccalaureate equivalent degree or the required five years of experience. On appeal, counsel submitted new employment letters documenting over five years of experience and argued the beneficiary's education was equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree. The AAO determined that the petitioner had overcome the director's grounds for denial and sustained the appeal.
