Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition because the architectural position appeared to require a state license, which the Beneficiary did not possess. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner successfully demonstrated that under state law, an unlicensed individual can work in the role under the supervision of a licensed architect, and provided evidence of such a supervisory arrangement.
