dismissed EB-3 Case: Construction
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the minimum educational requirements for the offered position. The labor certification required a U.S. bachelor's degree or a single foreign equivalent and explicitly did not accept an alternate combination of education and experience. The petitioner's evidence, an evaluation equating the beneficiary's work experience to a degree, was deemed insufficient as this standard is not applicable to the EB-3 professional immigrant classification.
