dismissed H-1B Case: Healthcare
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary was not qualified to perform the duties of the specialty occupation. Although the AAO found that the proffered position of a Qualified Mental Retardation Professional (QMRP) is a specialty occupation, it determined the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed the required one year of work experience with developmentally disabled persons as mandated by regulations.
