dismissed H-1B Case: Computer Programming
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an employment contractor, failed to provide a required itinerary of definite employment for the beneficiary, who would be placed at third-party client sites. Although the AAO found that a valid employer-employee relationship existed, it upheld the denial because the petitioner did not establish that specific, qualifying specialty occupation work was available for the full duration of the requested employment period.
