Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a small 6-employee franchise restaurant, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'Computer Software Engineer' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director and the AAO found the evidence insufficient to prove that the duties of the position were complex enough to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field for a business of its nature and size.
