Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'financial analyst' is a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's stated requirement for a general-purpose degree, such as business administration, was insufficient to prove the position requires a specific course of study and the application of a body of highly specialized knowledge.
