H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2017): did not establish it would have a valid employer-employee

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an IT consulting firm, failed to establish that it would have a valid employer-employee relationship with the beneficiary. The petitioner did not provide sufficient documentation to prove it would hire, pay, fire, supervise, or otherwise control the beneficiary's work, particularly as the beneficiary would be placed at an end-client's worksite.
