dismissed L-1B Case: Travel Agency
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a capacity involving specialized knowledge. The AAO found that the duties described for the 'packaged tour specialist' position, which involved designing and implementing tour packages for India, did not demonstrate a special or advanced level of knowledge of the petitioner's specific processes or services, as required by regulation.
