H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2022): did not establish was not eligible for an H-1B status

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary was not eligible for an H-1B status extension beyond the six-year limitation. The beneficiary's previously approved Form I-140 immigrant petition, which would have been the basis for the extension, had been revoked by USCIS due to a material error. As the beneficiary no longer had a valid approved immigrant petition, the regulatory basis for an extension beyond six years was not met.
