Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to sufficiently establish the substantive nature of the work the beneficiary would perform. The record lacked clear contractual evidence, especially with the end-client, and the provided purchase orders were vague, had questionable dates, and did not detail the specific duties. This failure to define the work prevented the determination of whether the position qualified as a specialty occupation.
