dismissed H-1B Case: Pharmacy
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary was eligible for the H-1B classification. The petitioner did not provide evidence of the beneficiary's required state license to practice as a pharmacist in New York, and unsupported assertions that a license was not needed were insufficient to meet the burden of proof.
