Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'Acupuncturist' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The Director and the AAO found that the evidence did not demonstrate that the job duties required a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field as a normal minimum requirement for this particular role at the petitioner's clinic.
