H-1B Dismissed — Software Engineering (2015): did not establish the beneficiary's eligibility for an H-1B
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish the beneficiary's eligibility for an H-1B extension beyond the six-year limit. The petitioner sought an extension under AC21 based on a previously approved Form I-140, but the Director correctly noted that the underlying I-140 petition had been revoked, rendering the beneficiary ineligible.
