H-1B Sustained โ Computer Science: the director denied the petition because the beneficiary
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition because the beneficiary was deemed unqualified, questioning the evidence that his education and work experience were equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree in computer science. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner provided additional, more detailed evidence, including a letter from the evaluator and employment affidavits, which successfully demonstrated that the beneficiary's qualifications met the degree equivalency requirement for the specialty occupation.
