H-1B Dismissed — Finance (2019): did not establish the proffered position of 'analyst'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'analyst' qualified as a specialty occupation. The petitioner's requirement of a bachelor's degree in a broad and disparate range of fields, including accounting, business administration, economics, finance, and mathematics, was deemed too general and did not meet the statutory requirement for a degree in a 'specific specialty' directly related to the position.
