Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered cost accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that the position's duties, while involving accounting tasks, were not complex enough to require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, distinguishing the role from that of a professional accountant and likening it to a bookkeeping or clerk position which could be filled by individuals with less education or on-the-job experience.
