remanded H-1B Case: Information Management
Decision Summary
The case was remanded because the Director committed a legal error in analyzing the beneficiary's qualifications. The Director improperly conflated the regulatory requirements for a credentials evaluation with those for a USCIS determination, applying standards to the petitioner's evidence that were not required for the method used. The case was sent back to be re-evaluated under the correct regulatory framework.
