H-1B Dismissed — Finance (2020): did not establish the proffered position of 'associate
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'associate manager, finance' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's stated requirement of a general bachelor's degree in 'finance or business or a similar field' was too broad and did not necessitate a specific course of study, which is required for an H-1B specialty occupation.
