H-1B Dismissed โ€” Computer Science (2022): did not establish the proffered position of a 'web software

๐Ÿ“… 2022-05-23 ๐Ÿ‘ค Company ๐Ÿ“‚ Computer Science

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of a 'web software developer' qualifies as a specialty occupation. There were material inconsistencies in the record regarding the position's minimum educational requirements; the petitioner initially claimed a master's degree was required but later provided job postings for similar positions that accepted a bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience, undermining the assertion that a specific degree is a consistent prerequisite.
