Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director and AAO determined that the proposed duties were more akin to those of a bookkeeper, an occupation that does not require a bachelor's degree. The petitioner did not prove that the position met any of the four regulatory criteria, such as normally requiring a degree or being so complex as to necessitate one.
