H-1B Dismissed — Computer Science (2017): did not establish the proffered position as a computer

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position as a computer programmer qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner provided inconsistent and overly broad educational requirements, failing to demonstrate the need for a degree in a specific specialty. Additionally, the description of job duties was too generic and lacked sufficient detail to prove the position was complex or specialized enough to require a bachelor's degree.
