We were recently retained at the I-140 Appeal stage for an I-140 denied on grounds of fraud/willful misrepresentation.  USCIS denied the I-140 citing inconsistencies between the ETA 9089 job requirements, the advertisements, and a subsequent letter sent by petitioner with an RFE pertaining to the job requirements.  Due to what USCIS termed as "material inconsistencies,"  the I-140 was denied on the grounds that the labor certification submitted was gained through fraud or willful misrepresentation of a material fact.

How does one prove that five years’ experience gained while working for one employer, with one job title is progressively responsible in nature? 

That issue was key in a recent EB-2, I-140 petition. USCIS issued a Request For Evidence (RFE) alleging that although the employee had the requisite experience, he had failed to establish that his experience had grown progressively responsible after receipt of his Bachelor’s degree.
