Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition for failing to establish that the petitioner was exempt from the H-1B numerical cap and the ACIWA fee. The AAO found ambiguity in the Director's Request for Evidence (RFE) which may have impacted the petitioner's ability to respond. The matter was remanded for the Director to consider the totality of the evidence, including affiliation agreements, and issue a new decision.
