H-1B Dismissed โ Physical Therapy (2007): the record did not demonstrate that the beneficiary
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the record did not demonstrate that the beneficiary possessed the required state license to work as a physical therapist. Although the AAO found the director erred by denying the petition based on evidence of fraud not in the record, it ultimately agreed that the lack of licensure was a sufficient basis for denial.
