sustained EB-3 Case: Landscaping
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition due to contradictions regarding the beneficiary's weekly hours worked in a prior position (40 hours claimed vs. 20 hours on the ETA 750) and a lack of payroll evidence. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner provided new letters and an affidavit successfully explaining that the 20-hour entry was a scrivener's error and that the beneficiary did in fact work the required full-time hours to qualify.
