H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2016): did not establish the proffered position as a 'systems

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position as a 'systems engineer' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found numerous inconsistencies in the record regarding the end-client, the beneficiary's specific job duties, and the contractual relationships, which undermined the petitioner's claims. As a result, the petitioner did not provide a sufficiently detailed description of the duties to prove they require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
