remanded EB-3 Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition, filed under the EB-3 professional category, because the Beneficiary lacked a U.S. bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent. The AAO remanded the case because the Director improperly refused the Petitioner's request to reclassify the petition to the skilled worker category, especially since the request was made before adjudication and was invited by the Director in a Request for Evidence.
