Decision Summary

The appeal was sustained because the director erred in concluding that the beneficiary had not met the one-year continuous foreign employment requirement within the three years preceding the petition. The director only considered the beneficiary's most recent ten months of employment, overlooking a prior period from August 2005 to August 2006 which fulfilled the one-year mandate. The AAO found the evidence submitted on appeal, corroborating this earlier employment, to be persuasive and withdrew the director's finding.
