dismissed H-1B Case: Dietetics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered dietician position qualified as a specialty occupation. The director determined the duties described were more similar to those of a personal and home care aide, which does not require a bachelor's degree. Additionally, the beneficiary was found to be unqualified as she did not possess the required State of California dietician license to practice the profession.
