H-1B Dismissed โ Information Technology (2020): did not establish the proffered position qualifies as a
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner provided inconsistent statements regarding the minimum educational requirements for the position (sometimes stating a bachelor's degree, other times a master's). This inconsistency, along with insufficient evidence regarding the specific duties the beneficiary would perform, prevented a determination that the position required a degree in a specific specialty.
