dismissed H-1B Case: Computer Programming
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, identified as an employment contractor, failed to provide a required itinerary of services for the beneficiary. While the AAO overturned the director's finding on the employer-employee relationship, it upheld the denial because the lack of an itinerary meant the petitioner did not establish the existence of specific specialty occupation work for the requested period, making the proposed employment speculative.
