Decision Summary
The director denied the petition because the beneficiary had reached the maximum six-year period of stay in H-1B status. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the beneficiary qualified for an extension beyond the six-year limit under the AC21 Act, as more than 365 days had passed since the filing of a required labor certification.
