dismissed EB-3 Case: Physical Therapy
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide the required evidence at the time of filing. Specifically, there was no letter from the Texas state physical therapy licensing authority stating the beneficiary was qualified to take the state's licensing exam, a mandatory requirement for a Schedule A application. Post-filing evidence of eligibility to test in another state (California) was deemed insufficient as eligibility must be established when the petition is filed.
