Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because new USCIS policy guidance regarding the employer-employee relationship was issued after the initial denial, requiring a new adjudication. The AAO also instructed the Director to re-examine inconsistencies in the record, such as a changing contractual chain and the need for more probative evidence from the end-client to establish the specialty occupation nature of the position.
