Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possesses specialized knowledge or that the proposed U.S. position requires an individual with such knowledge. The director, and subsequently the AAO, found the evidence insufficient to demonstrate that the beneficiary's knowledge of the company's products and procedures was truly special or advanced beyond what is commonly held in the industry.
