dismissed L-1B Case: Information Technology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary possessed specialized knowledge. The director found that the petitioner did not prove that its internal processes were significantly different from methods used by other technology consulting firms, or that the beneficiary's understanding of these processes was truly specialized, uncommon, and not easily transferable.
