Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'rehab specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The core issue was whether the position requires the theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge and a minimum of a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty for entry, which the petitioner did not successfully demonstrate.
