H-1B Sustained — Systems Analyst: the director revoked the petition because the petitioner
Decision Summary
The director revoked the petition because the petitioner paid the beneficiary less than the proffered wage. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the lower pay resulted from a reduction in work hours due to a business downturn. This change was deemed not to be a material change affecting the beneficiary's eligibility for H-1B classification, and therefore did not require the petitioner to file an amended petition.
Criteria Discussed
