H-1B Dismissed — Computer Systems Analysis (2020): did not establish the proffered position of 'project leader

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of 'project leader 2' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that standard industry resources, such as the DOL's Occupational Outlook Handbook, do not support the claim that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for a computer systems analyst role, as individuals with more general degrees can enter the field.
