Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, identified as an employment contractor, failed to submit a required itinerary detailing the dates and locations of the beneficiary's proposed employment. While the AAO disagreed with the director's finding on the employer-employee relationship, the lack of an itinerary was sufficient grounds for denial as it did not establish the beneficiary would be employed in a specialty occupation for the entire requested period.
