H-1B Dismissed — Financial Consulting (2015): did not establish the proffered position of 'business
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a small financial consulting business, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'business development specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director and the AAO found the evidence insufficient to prove that the position's duties are so complex or specialized as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field as a minimum entry requirement.
