Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'staff accountant' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO agreed with the Director's conclusion that the evidence did not demonstrate that the position's duties require the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge, or that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is a minimum prerequisite for entry.
