Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. Additionally, the AAO found that the petitioner did not prove it would maintain a valid employer-employee relationship with the beneficiary. The director's initial reason for denial, that the beneficiary was not qualified to perform the services, was also upheld.
