H-1B Dismissed — Home Healthcare (2006): did not establish the proffered accountant position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered accountant position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO agreed with the director that the described duties were more aligned with those of a financial clerk, which does not normally require a bachelor's degree. Additionally, the decision noted that the beneficiary's degree in business administration was not appropriate for a professional accountant position.
