H-1B Dismissed — Finance (2019): did not establish the proffered 'analyst' position
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's stated minimum educational requirement of a bachelor's degree in a general field like 'business administration' was too broad and not sufficiently specialized to establish that the role requires a body of highly specialized knowledge.
Criteria Discussed
Normal Degree Requirement For The Position Industry Standard Or Unique/Complex Position Employer'S Normal Hiring Requirement Specialized And Complex Duties
