Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed primarily because the labor certification allowed for a combination of education and experience in lieu of a bachelor's degree, which fails to meet the requirements for the professional classification. The decision also noted that the beneficiary's three-year degree from India was not established as equivalent to a single U.S. bachelor's degree, and a combination of education and experience cannot be used to meet this specific visa requirement.
