H-1B Dismissed โ Information Technology (2021): did not establish the substantive nature of the proffered
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the substantive nature of the proffered position as a specialty occupation. The AAO found inconsistent and vague evidence regarding the duties, role, and level of responsibility of the position, particularly noting discrepancies between the petitioner's claims and a letter from the end-client. This ambiguity prevented a determination of whether the position truly required a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
