Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the proffered 'bioanalyst' position at a commercial ice production company qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the described duties were more closely related to those of a science technician, an occupation that does not normally require a bachelor's degree. The petitioner's attempt to classify the position as a clinical laboratory technologist was found to be misplaced as the duties did not align with that profession.
