Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an accessories wholesaler, failed to resolve inconsistencies in the record and credibly demonstrate a legitimate business need for a fashion designer. The petitioner's tax documents and industry classification indicated a business focused on wholesale distribution and brokerage rather than design, undermining the claim that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation.
