Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because both the Petitioner and the Director miscalculated the beneficiary's remaining H-1B time. While the AAO rejected the petitioner's argument to recapture time spent in the U.S. during a grace period, its own recalculation determined the beneficiary was eligible for a longer period than the Director had approved. The case was sent back for the Director to issue a new approval with the corrected validity period.
