L-1B Remanded — Computer Storage Systems (2005): the director adjudicated the petition using the wrong legal
Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director adjudicated the petition using the wrong legal standard. The petitioner had filed to change the beneficiary's status to an L-1B specialized knowledge worker, but the director denied the case by incorrectly applying the criteria for an L-1A manager or executive. The AAO sent the case back to the director to issue a new decision based on the correct specialized knowledge standard.
