Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the evidence established the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The decision concluded that the position requires the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge, the attainment of a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, and is complex enough to require such a degree.
