H-1B Dismissed — Education (2006): did not establish a specific, valid teaching position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a teacher recruitment and placement company, failed to establish that a specific, valid teaching position existed for the beneficiary when the petition was filed. The service agreement with the school system was on an 'as-needed' basis and did not guarantee a position or a specific work location, leading the director to conclude that a valid employer-employee relationship and a concrete job offer were not sufficiently demonstrated.
