Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'technical specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The Petitioner did not demonstrate that the position requires a degree in a specific specialty, instead only requiring a degree 'in a relevant field,' which was deemed insufficient to prove the role requires a body of highly specialized knowledge.
