Decision Summary
The Director denied the H-1B extension petition because the underlying I-140 petition had been denied. However, the I-140 was subsequently approved after the petitioner filed a second motion to reopen. The AAO considered the approval of the I-140 a significant development, withdrew the Director's denial, and remanded the matter for a new decision.
