The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed the 'specialized knowledge' required for the L-1B visa classification. The petitioner sought to change the beneficiary's status from L-1A (manager) to L-1B, but the director determined the evidence was insufficient to prove the beneficiary had either a special knowledge of the company's product and its application in international markets or an advanced knowledge of the company's processes and procedures.
