dismissed L-1B Case: Agricultural Equipment
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a specialized knowledge capacity. The director determined that the beneficiary's duties as a mechanic were not significantly different from others in the industry and did not require the advanced level of knowledge defined by the statute. The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence on appeal to overcome this finding.
