Purchasing Manager
Purchasing · 2024-07-08
This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.
Proposed Endeavor
The petitioner proposes to work in the United States as a purchasing agent.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The appeal was dismissed because the Form I-140 did not contain a valid handwritten signature as required by 8 C.F.R. § 103.2(a)(2). The Petitioner used an electronically produced signature rather than a reproduced original handwritten signature, and the Director was not required to provide an opportunity to cure this deficiency.
