H-1B Dismissed — Accounting (2006): did not establish the proffered accountant position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director determined that the duties described, within the context of the petitioner's real estate business, did not necessarily require the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge and the attainment of a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty as a minimum for entry.
