EB-3 Dismissed โ Construction (2019): did not establish the beneficiary met the minimum
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.
