H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2017): did not establish two key requirements

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish two key requirements. First, it did not demonstrate that it would maintain a valid employer-employee relationship with the beneficiary, who would work at an off-site location for an end-client through a chain of vendors. Second, the petitioner did not prove that the proffered position of 'webmethod developer' qualifies as a specialty occupation.
