dismissed H-1B Case: Accounting
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner provided only generic job descriptions without specific details about the substantive accounting issues the beneficiary would handle. This lack of information made it impossible to determine if the role's duties were sufficiently complex to require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
