Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered position of 'programmer analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The job descriptions provided were found to be generic, inconsistent, and insufficiently detailed to establish that the specific duties required a bachelor's degree in a specialized field. The petitioner also initially failed to establish a valid employer-employee relationship.
