Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that while the position involves accounting tasks, the petitioner did not prove that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for this particular job, citing evidence that similar roles can be filled by individuals with less than a bachelor's degree.
