H-1B Dismissed — Credit Management (2020): did not establish the proffered position is a specialty

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position is a specialty occupation. The petitioner's requirement for a general bachelor's degree in fields like business administration or commerce was found to be too broad and did not demonstrate the need for a specific, specialized course of study directly related to the position's duties. The AAO concluded that the evidence did not satisfy any of the regulatory criteria for a specialty occupation.
