The AAO withdrew the director's denial and remanded the case for a new decision. The director had concluded that the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed specialized knowledge or that the U.S. position required such knowledge. The remand requires the director to re-evaluate the evidence regarding the beneficiary's knowledge of the company's proprietary software and its application in the U.S. market.
