H-1B Dismissed — Data Analytics (2020): did not establish definite, non-speculative specialty
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that definite, non-speculative specialty occupation work would be available for the beneficiary for the entire requested employment period. The provided contracts and letters from the end-client only covered a small fraction of the 35-month request, rendering the long-term employment proposal unsubstantiated and speculative.
