dismissed L-1B Case: Insurance
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the beneficiary's position as a claims specialist required specialized knowledge. Although the beneficiary was trained on proprietary software ('Tronador') and company procedures, the petitioner did not adequately demonstrate that this knowledge was sufficiently advanced or distinct from the knowledge of other skilled employees in the insurance field to meet the legal definition of 'specialized knowledge'.
