Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because upon de novo review, the AAO found that the petitioner had overcome the basis for the director's denial. The totality of the evidence, including submissions on appeal, established that the petitioner normally requires a bachelor's or higher degree in a specific specialty for the proffered position, thereby meeting the definition of a specialty occupation.
