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.
