dismissed H-1B Case: Computer Networking
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a computer networking business, failed to prove that the proffered position of a network systems analyst qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet any of the four regulatory criteria, noting that a bachelor's degree is not the normal minimum requirement for such a position according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook and that the duties were not shown to be sufficiently specialized or complex.
