sustained EB-3 Case: Household Management
Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition, finding the petitioning couple had not established their continuing ability to pay the proffered wage, particularly noting a large financial loss in their 2002 tax return. The appeal was sustained because the AAO considered the petitioners' overall financial situation, including very large interest income in multiple years which indicated substantial assets, and evidence that they had previously employed and paid the beneficiary.
