The proposed endeavor
Sales management in the United States.
Why it turned out this way
Denied on the threshold question, before Dhanasar was reached: the petitioner did not establish eligibility as an EB-2 professional. No master's degree, no bachelor's plus five years of progressive post-bachelor's experience, and the exceptional-ability criteria were not met.
Which prongs were challenged
- EB-2 base eligibility, ground of denial
Failure patterns present
These are the patterns our assessment checks every case against. Each links a documented defect to a remedy.
EB-2 base eligibility not established
The record does not establish a master's or higher, a bachelor's plus five years of progressive post-bachelor's experience in the specialty, or three of the six exceptional-ability criteria.
Why it matters This is a threshold question decided before the Dhanasar test is reached. A petition can fail here without the three prongs being considered at all.
Remedy Pick one base and document it completely. A foreign degree requires a US-equivalency evaluation to count. For the bachelor's-plus-five route, employer letters must show progression, not just tenure.
Analysis
lesson
The three prongs are irrelevant if the base category fails. Establish EB-2 eligibility first, in writing, with documents, a foreign degree needs a US-equivalency evaluation to count at all.
