remanded H-1B Case: Rehabilitation
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, concluding that the proposed 'rehabilitation specialist' position did not qualify as a specialty occupation and was similar to a social and human health assistant. The AAO withdrew the director's decision and remanded the case because the proper classification of the position's duties was in dispute, with the petitioner arguing it was analogous to a medical and health services manager, thus requiring further review.
