Decision Summary

The Director approved the petition for a shorter period than requested, providing an unclear and contradictory explanation for the limited validity. The AAO, upon de novo review, calculated the beneficiary's time spent in L-1A status and determined they had not exhausted their maximum allowable six-year period and were eligible for the full H-1B period requested by the petitioner. The matter was remanded for a new decision consistent with the AAO's analysis.
