Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, finding the described duties for a habilitation counselor were too general to qualify as a specialty occupation. The AAO disagreed, concluding that information provided in response to an RFE sufficiently detailed the complexity of the duties, including the use of assessments, lesson plans, and collaboration with a multidisciplinary team. Therefore, the AAO withdrew the Director's decision and remanded the case for a new decision consistent with its analysis.
