EB-3 Dismissed — Janitorial Services (2017): the Director found the petitioner willfully misrepresented

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the Director found the petitioner willfully misrepresented a material fact on the labor certification application by failing to disclose a familial relationship between a company co-shareholder and the beneficiary. This concealment was deemed material as it prevented an inquiry into the bona fides of the job opportunity. The petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to rebut the finding that the misrepresentation was willful, thus the labor certification was invalidated and the petition's approval was revoked.
