Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the petitioner successfully established the proffered 'developer' position as a specialty occupation. The petitioner provided a detailed job description showing the duties were so specialized and complex that they required knowledge typically associated with a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, satisfying the regulatory criteria.
Criteria Discussed
