Framework Evaluation
0 of 1 criteria metEmployer Ability to Pay (Not Met)
The previous appeal was dismissed due to insufficient evidence of the petitioner's ability to pay the proffered wages.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed as moot because the Beneficiary had already acquired lawful permanent resident status via a family-based filing. Administrative tribunals may dismiss motions that lack practical significance when the underlying objective has already been achieved.

The motion was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to submit requested financial documentation during the initial filing, the RFE stage, or the appeal, and did not prove the evidence was previously unavailable. Furthermore, the evidence provided only covered the 2017 fiscal year, failing to establish a continuing ability to pay from the priority date until the present.

The initial appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to demonstrate the Beneficiary's qualifying experience for the offered job. The subsequent motions to reopen and reconsider filed by the Petitioner's son were dismissed due to lack of standing. The Beneficiary's current motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed because they exceeded the scope of the AAO's review, as they did not address the factual or legal correctness of the latest decision (which focused on the Petitioner's son's lack of standing).

The motion to reopen was dismissed because it did not state new facts, providing only tax returns and articles already present in the record. The motion to reconsider was dismissed because it failed to address the grounds of the prior decision and instead re-argued merits regarding the ability to pay and the materiality of the concealed sibling relationship.

USCIS EB-3 rfe remanded
2022-06-17
The AAO withdrew the Director's finding regarding the lack of a bona fide job opportunity, noting that recruitment was performed and Japanese language skills were required. The case was remanded to determine if the job offer is permanent, as the record lacked evidence of the Beneficiary's interpretation of the three-year employment commitment agreement. The Director must now seek additional proof regarding the intended term of employment.
