Decision Summary

The Director's decision was withdrawn and the case was remanded for a new decision. This was due to a change in USCIS policy guidance regarding H-1B petitions for workers at third-party worksites, which resulted from a recent federal court decision (Itserve Alliance, Inc. v. Cissna). The AAO determined it was appropriate for the Director to review the case anew under the updated policy.
