dismissed H-1B Case: Accounting
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director found that the duties were not sufficiently complex for a small retail jewelry business to require a degreed professional. Additionally, the petitioner was found to be an inactive company that had forfeited its existence at the time of filing the petition and failed to provide sufficient documentary evidence to support its claims on appeal.
