EB-3 Remanded — Business (2017): the AAO disagreed with the Director's reason for denial,

Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the AAO disagreed with the Director's reason for denial, finding that the beneficiary's progressive foreign degrees (a two-year bachelor's and a two-year master's) were equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree. However, the AAO raised new concerns about the petitioner's genuine need for a full-time controller given its small size and low payroll, and sent the case back for further review of this issue and the petitioner's ability to pay the wage.
