Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possesses specialized knowledge. The director determined that the record did not prove the beneficiary's computer skills were truly specialized or that such knowledge was required for the position. The AAO concurred, finding the evidence insufficient to demonstrate the beneficiary possessed knowledge that was special or advanced beyond what is generally found in the industry.
