Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'business administrator' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that requiring a general-purpose bachelor's degree in business administration, without further specification, is not sufficient to prove the role requires a body of highly specialized knowledge. A petitioner must demonstrate the position requires a degree in a specific specialty that is directly and closely related to the duties.
