Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the original approval was revoked due to gross error and misrepresentation. USCIS investigations found that the petitioner was a shell company created solely to file the petition and that the employment agreement was fraudulent. The beneficiary was not employed under the stated terms, was engaging in unauthorized self-employment, and was earning significantly less than the proffered salary.
