H-1B Dismissed — Automotive Services (2006): did not establish the proffered position of manager
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an automobile oil change and tune-up service, failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO affirmed the director's decision, concluding that the petitioner did not establish any of the four required regulatory criteria, as the duties of the manager were not proven to be so complex or specialized as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
