EB-3 Remanded — Market Research (2021): the AAO found the Director's decision was fundamentally

Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the AAO found the Director's decision was fundamentally flawed. The Director had denied the petition based on a misinterpretation of a compound question on the labor certification form regarding familial relationships, incorrectly concluding there was willful misrepresentation and that the job offer was not bona fide. The AAO clarified that the indirect relationship cited by the Director did not fall under the specific wording of the question, thus withdrawing the Director's decision.
