Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a small hotel with only eight employees, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'business development specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found inconsistencies in the record, such as insufficient staffing to operate the hotel and a job description that referenced a non-existent marketing team. These discrepancies raised significant doubts as to whether the beneficiary would actually perform the specialized duties as claimed.
