Question:

The Sikh Cultural Society, Inc. (SCS), petitioned the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for a special immigrant religious worker visa for Birender Singh. The USCIS denied the request for several reasons. Despite certain statutory requirements, there were discrepancies or inadequate evidence as to Singh’s compensation, housing, and employment history. The SCS did not provide all of the requested information. In addition, the SCS did not show that Singh had worked continuously for the previous two years. The SCS filed a suit in a federal district court against the USCIS, arguing that the denial was arbitrary and capricious. In applying the arbitrary and capricious standard, what agency actions or omissions does a court typically consider? Does the denial of Singh’s visa pass the test? Explain. [Sikh Cultural Society, Inc. v. United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, 720 Fed.Appx. 649 (2d Cir. 2018)] (See Agency Creation and Powers.)
