Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner submitted sufficient credible evidence to demonstrate that the beneficiary possesses an advanced level of knowledge of a proprietary company framework. The AAO found this knowledge to be specialized and not commonly held, which also negated the Director's finding that the beneficiary's placement at a client site constituted impermissible labor for hire.
