Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to submit a certified Labor Condition Application (LCA) that corresponded to the actual job duties of the proffered position. While the petitioner described the role as a higher-paying software developer, the LCA was filed under a lower-paying occupational category, which was a dispositive basis for denial.
