Decision Summary
The director's initial denial, based on a lack of documentation from the third-party client, was overcome on appeal when the petitioner provided a new purchase order specifying the beneficiary's duties. However, the AAO remanded the case because the petitioner had still not sufficiently proven that the programmer-analyst position qualifies as a specialty occupation requiring a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
