H-1B Dismissed — Computer Science (2021): did not establish the beneficiary was qualified to perform
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was qualified to perform the services of the specialty occupation. While the AAO found that the proffered 'software engineer' position itself did qualify as a specialty occupation, the denial was upheld based on the beneficiary's qualifications.
Criteria Discussed
8 C.F.R. § 214.2(H)(4)(Iii)(A) (Specialty Occupation) 8 C.F.R. § 214.2(H)(4)(Iii)(C) (Beneficiary'S Qualifications)
