EB-3 Dismissed โ Business Consulting (2018): the Beneficiary did not meet the minimum educational
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the Beneficiary did not meet the minimum educational requirements for the professional classification. The labor certification required a single U.S. bachelor's degree or a foreign equivalent, but the Beneficiary's three-year degree from India was not considered equivalent. The attempt to combine the three-year degree with one year of master's level study was rejected, as the regulations require a single degree for this classification.
