Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found the beneficiary faced extenuating circumstances that excused the early termination of his previous employment. The prior employer breached the contract by unilaterally reducing the beneficiary's salary, which violated the Labor Condition Application (LCA), and attempted to move him to a non-approved location.
