dismissed H-1B Case: Auditing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a small retail gift store company, failed to establish that the proffered position of internal auditor qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that the petitioner did not demonstrate that the duties were sufficiently specialized or complex to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field, thereby failing to meet any of the regulatory criteria.
