dismissed EB-3 Case: Nursing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petition was filed on March 28, 2005, the effective date of the new PERM regulations. The petitioner failed to meet the requirements of these new regulations, specifically by not submitting a valid Prevailing Wage Determination (PWD) and failing to comply with the notice of filing rules. The AAO rejected the petitioner's argument that the case should be adjudicated under pre-PERM regulations based on its postmark date.
