EB-3 Dismissed — Culinary Arts (2024): did not establish the beneficiary met the minimum

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the beneficiary met the minimum experience requirement of 12 months as a cook. The beneficiary's claimed employment history was contradicted by her prior nonimmigrant visa applications, where she stated she was unemployed, creating a material inconsistency that the petitioner did not resolve with independent evidence. Additionally, the submitted employment verification letters were found deficient for not meeting regulatory standards.
