Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed accountant position qualified as a specialty occupation. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the petitioner did not demonstrate that the duties of the position were so complex or specialized as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, which is a core requirement for the H-1B visa category.
