Decision Summary

The decision was withdrawn and the case was remanded for a new decision following the issuance of new USCIS policy guidance regarding the employer-employee relationship, which occurred while the appeal was pending. The AAO also instructed the Director to re-evaluate whether the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation, noting that the submitted job duties were generalized, vague, and did not sufficiently convey why a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty was required.
