EB-3 Dismissed โ Health Care (2019): the initial petition for an 'other worker' was denied
Decision Summary
The initial petition for an 'other worker' was denied because the position of registered nurse required more than two years of training, making it ineligible for that sub-category. The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner's request to change the classification to 'skilled worker' on appeal was not permissible, as petitioners cannot make material changes to a petition after it has been filed, especially when it is not a clerical error reported in a timely manner.
Criteria Discussed
Other Worker Classification Skilled Worker Classification Correction Of Visa Classification After Filing
