dismissed H-1B Case: Human Resources
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered Human Resources Manager position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet any of the four regulatory criteria, noting that the duties were not proven to be sufficiently specialized or complex, and that a degree in a general field like business administration did not satisfy the requirement for a degree in a specific specialty.
