Dismissed H-1B

H-1B Dismissed โ€” Information Technology (2020): did not establish sufficient evidence from the end-client

๐Ÿ“… 2020-07-27 ๐Ÿ‘ค Company ๐Ÿ“‚ Information Technology

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an IT services company, failed to provide sufficient evidence from the end-client to establish the substantive nature of the work the beneficiary would perform. Lacking detailed job requirements from the third-party worksite, as required by the precedent in Defensor v. Meissner, the AAO could not determine if the position qualified as a specialty occupation.
