H-1B Dismissed โ Health Insurance (2020): did not establish the proffered position of 'associate
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of 'associate consultant' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's stated minimum educational requirement, which included a general degree like Business Administration or a 'related field,' was too broad and did not establish the need for a degree in a specific specialty directly related to the position's duties.
