Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of budget accountant qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director determined the duties were more akin to those of a bookkeeping or accounting clerk, a role that does not normally require a bachelor's degree. The petitioner did not prove that a degree is a normal industry requirement, that its specific duties were uniquely complex, or that it normally requires a degree for the position.
