H-1B Dismissed — Financial Management (2016): did not establish the proffered 'financial manager'
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered 'financial manager' position qualified as a specialty occupation. The AAO agreed with the Director that the described duties were more aligned with a bookkeeping position, which does not normally require a bachelor's degree. The petitioner did not provide sufficient detail to demonstrate the position's duties were specialized or complex enough to necessitate a specific degree.
