Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary was qualified for the specialty occupation. The director found that the beneficiary lacked the required state license to practice as a special education teacher in Missouri, and the petitioner did not establish that the only remaining obstacle to licensure was the inability to obtain a social security card.
