Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the proffered financial analyst position did not qualify as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the required bachelor's degree in business was too broad and did not meet the statutory requirement for a degree in a 'specific specialty' that imparts a 'body of highly specialized knowledge'.
