Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed budget analyst position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that a degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for entry into the occupation, as a wide range of degrees are acceptable. Additionally, the petitioner did not prove that a specific degree requirement is common to the industry among similar organizations.
