L-1B Remanded — Seafood Processing (2011): did not establish the beneficiary had one continuous year

Decision Summary

The director denied the petition for failing to establish that the beneficiary had one continuous year of employment abroad within the three years preceding the petition. The AAO remanded the case because the director did not raise this specific issue in the Request for Evidence (RFE), thereby denying the petitioner a fair opportunity to provide documentation on this point. The matter was sent back for a new decision after consideration of additional evidence submitted on appeal.
