Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary had reached the maximum six-year period of stay in H-1B status. The petitioner failed to establish eligibility for an extension under AC-21, as the beneficiary's labor certification had not been pending for the required 365 days by the time the six-year limit was reached.
