dismissed H-1B Case: Computer Science
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner provided multiple inconsistent descriptions of the job title, duties, and minimum educational requirements. These variances prevented the AAO from determining the substantive nature of the work and whether it qualified as a specialty occupation under any of the regulatory criteria. Additionally, the petitioner's acceptance of a general business degree was deemed too broad to establish the need for a specific body of highly specialized knowledge.
