Decision Summary

The appeal was initially dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove it qualified for an H-1B cap exemption as a non-profit entity affiliated with an institution of higher education. On the subsequent motion to reopen and reconsider, the petitioner submitted new evidence of its non-profit status but still failed to demonstrate the required affiliation. Consequently, the motion was denied, and the dismissal of the petition was upheld.
