Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because while the petitioner successfully demonstrated its ability to pay the proffered wage, which was the basis for the initial denial, the AAO identified a new issue. The AAO found evidence of a prior business and personal relationship between the petitioner and the beneficiary, which raised significant doubts about whether the job opportunity was genuinely open to U.S. workers.
Criteria Discussed
Ability To Pay Proffered Wage Bona Fide Job Opportunity
