dismissed L-1B Case: Textile Manufacturing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed the required specialized knowledge. The director determined that the beneficiary's duties were not significantly different from those of other engineers in the undergarment industry and that the petitioner's production processes were not proven to be unique. The AAO concurred, finding the evidence insufficient to demonstrate the beneficiary's knowledge was special or advanced beyond the ordinary.
