H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2017): did not establish the proffered "systems engineer" position
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered "systems engineer" position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the record contained significant inconsistencies regarding the end-client and did not sufficiently describe the beneficiary's specific duties or projects for the full duration of the requested employment period, failing to prove that specialty occupation work was available.
