Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner indicated that a bachelor's degree in a wide range of fields (such as business administration, finance, economics, or information technology) would be acceptable, which undermines the claim that the position requires a degree in a 'specific specialty' with a 'body of highly specialized knowledge' as mandated by the statute.
