Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a valid employer-employee relationship would exist and that the beneficiary would be working in a specialty occupation. The Director initially denied the petition on these grounds, noting issues with the petitioner's ability to control the beneficiary's work at an offsite location with multiple intervening vendors.
