Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'IT Analyst - Middleware Administrator' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. Beyond the initial denial, the AAO also found that the evidence did not prove the petitioner would maintain the requisite employer-employee relationship with the beneficiary, who would be working at a third-party client site.
