Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO agreed with the director that the proffered position did not qualify as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the described duties were more aligned with those of an office manager or administrative assistant, rather than a professional health services manager. The petitioner, a small medical practice, failed to demonstrate that the position's duties were sufficiently complex or specialized to necessitate a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
