EB-3 Dismissed — Culinary Arts (2017): did not establish the beneficiary possessed the required

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the beneficiary possessed the required two years of experience as a chef. The record contained significant unresolved inconsistencies, specifically a discrepancy between the claimed chef experience on the labor certification and the beneficiary's prior nonimmigrant student visa application, which listed her occupation as an 'office worker'. The evidence submitted to explain this discrepancy was deemed insufficient and not independently verifiable.
