dismissed EB-3 Case: Information Technology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary did not meet the minimum educational requirements stated on the labor certification. The position required a U.S. master's degree or foreign equivalent, but evaluations showed the beneficiary's education was equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree. The petitioner's claim that a combination of education and experience was acceptable was rejected because the labor certification form explicitly indicated that no alternate combination was permissible.
