dismissed H-1B Case: Custodial Services
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of custodial services manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that a bachelor's degree is not the normal minimum requirement for the position, is not a common requirement within the industry for similar roles, and that the job duties are not so specialized or complex as to require knowledge associated with a bachelor's degree.
