Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner established that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner sufficiently articulated its business operations and explained that the beneficiary's duties are so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform them is usually associated with a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field.
