EB-3 Dismissed — Computer Science (2018): the Beneficiary did not meet the minimum educational

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the Beneficiary did not meet the minimum educational requirement as stated in the labor certification. The certification required a U.S. bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent, and the Beneficiary's three-year degree from India did not qualify. The AAO determined that the petitioner's inclusion of standard 'Kellogg language' did not override the specific requirement for a bachelor's degree, especially since the petitioner had explicitly indicated that an alternate combination of education and experience was not acceptable.
