H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2016): did not establish it had non-speculative, specialty
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that it had non-speculative, specialty occupation work for the beneficiary for the entire requested employment period. The provided job duties were vague and lacked detail, and the statement of work indicated the project would end long before the requested visa validity date. Inconsistencies, such as the Level II wage designation for a position described with complex responsibilities, further undermined the petitioner's claim.
