EB-3 Sustained โ Accounting (2017): the AAO found that the Director misinterpreted the labor
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the Director misinterpreted the labor certification's educational requirements. The certification specified a 'Bachelor's (or higher) degree' in an acceptable field, and the Beneficiary's master's degree in Business Administration met this requirement, even though their bachelor's degree was in an unlisted field.
