Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that it meets the regulatory definition of a United States employer, specifically regarding the employer-employee relationship. The petitioner did not prove it would have the right to hire, pay, fire, supervise, or otherwise control the beneficiary's work, which is a key requirement for the H-1B classification.
