H-1B Dismissed — Technology Management (2023): did not establish the beneficiary was eligible for an H-1B
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary was eligible for an H-1B extension beyond the six-year limit. The beneficiary failed to apply for adjustment of status within one year of an immigrant visa becoming available, and the AAO found that the reasons provided for this failure were not circumstances beyond the beneficiary's control.
