Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of Systems Administrator qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the duties were not proven to be so specialized or complex as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field, referencing the Occupational Outlook Handbook. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that a specific degree is a normal minimum requirement for the position, common in the industry, or a standard requirement for the employer.
