H-1B Dismissed — Computer Consulting (2017): did not establish the proffered position qualifies as a
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found issues with the Labor Condition Application (LCA), noting it did not properly correspond to the claimed occupation and that the offered wage was insufficient. Furthermore, the petitioner provided inconsistent information regarding the minimum educational requirements, with some job postings listing an associate's degree as sufficient, which undermined the claim that a bachelor's degree was required.
