AAO found the petitioner's 2010 appointment as Science Department Chairperson overseeing 300+ students, certifications reflecting increased responsibilities, and extensive professional development activities collectively established more than five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience.
AAO found that the petitioner's 2012 net income ($1,982) and net current assets (-$7,558) were both insufficient to cover the proffered wage of $54,622.40. Wages paid to the beneficiary in 2013 ($4,555.18 YTD) fell far short of the proffered wage. Bank statements were rejected as not among the required forms of evidence and as unable to show sustainable ability to pay.…

AAO found that the petitioner's 2012 net income ($1,982) and net current assets (-$7,558) were both insufficient to cover the proffered wage of $54,622.40. Wages paid to the beneficiary in 2013 ($4,555.18 YTD) fell far short of the proffered wage. Bank statements were rejected as not among the required forms of evidence and as unable to show sustainable ability to pay. The totality of circumstances, including low taxable income in 2011 and no evidence of uncharacteristic losses, did not support a finding of ability to pay.
Beneficiary possesses 24 months of qualifying experience required by the labor certification
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO raised this issue beyond the director's decision, finding the experience with the petitioner was in a substantially comparable position and the experience with the apparent overseas affiliate is similarly unusable, with additional unresolved full-time/part-time inconsistencies.

Beneficiary possesses advanced degree as required by labor certification
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO agreed the beneficiary holds the equivalent of two bachelor's degrees, not a Master's, and rejected the H.14 Kellogg-mandated language as a basis to accept lesser qualifications.

Beneficiary meets minimum experience requirements of the labor certification by the priority date
AAO 为什么未被说服
The beneficiary's claimed experience as a Database Administrator and Systems Engineer totaled only four years and seven months at best—five months short of the required five years. Further, inconsistencies between the experience letters and tax returns (which listed the beneficiary as a Systems Engineer in 2008–2009, contrary to the labor certification's representation that he was a Database Administrator) undermined the cr…

The beneficiary's claimed experience as a Database Administrator and Systems Engineer totaled only four years and seven months at best—five months short of the required five years. Further, inconsistencies between the experience letters and tax returns (which listed the beneficiary as a Systems Engineer in 2008–2009, contrary to the labor certification's representation that he was a Database Administrator) undermined the credibility of the petitioner's evidence. The beneficiary's experience in his current Project Manager Client Services role could not be counted because that position was substantially comparable to the offered position.
national interest served substantially greater than available U.S. worker
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO found the petitioner lacked the required past history of demonstrable achievement with influence on the field. His company was a brand-new startup with no completed patent, no commercial activity, and speculative future prospects; his research publications were limited and unaccompanied by citation evidence; and his post-filing evidence could not establish eligibility as of the filing date.…

AAO found the petitioner lacked the required past history of demonstrable achievement with influence on the field. His company was a brand-new startup with no completed patent, no commercial activity, and speculative future prospects; his research publications were limited and unaccompanied by citation evidence; and his post-filing evidence could not establish eligibility as of the filing date. Entrepreneurship alone does not qualify a petitioner for the NIW absent a track record of influential achievement.
national interest substantially greater than U.S. worker
AAO 为什么未被说服
The petitioner performed data-gathering support roles consistent with graduate student requirements, and her contributions were several steps removed from the published research. Her work was not widely disseminated, she was not a credited co-author on any peer-reviewed publications, and the record did not show that the field's results would have differed if another qualified worker had collected the data.
