dismissed O-1B Case: Entertainment
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide a proper itinerary of specific events for the beneficiary. The AAO found that the submitted bookings schedule was for the petitioner's band, not the beneficiary, and that evidence had been altered, casting doubt on its reliability. The AAO concluded the petitioner sought to have the beneficiary available for potential future bookings rather than for a series of planned events as required.
