Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a long-term care facility, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'reimbursement specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for entry into the position, is common to the industry for similar roles, or that the duties are sufficiently complex to necessitate such a degree. The AAO compared the role to a medical records and health information technician, an occupation that does not typically require a baccalaureate degree.
