Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a small residential care home, failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director found the duties described were more akin to those of a bookkeeper or accounting clerk, which do not normally require a bachelor's degree. The AAO ultimately agreed that the petitioner did not prove the position met the regulatory standards for a specialty occupation.
