H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2019): did not establish the proffered 'business analyst' position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'business analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The descriptions of the job duties from the petitioner and the end-client were vague, inconsistent, and did not provide enough detail to ascertain the complexity, responsibilities, or specialized knowledge required. This failure to sufficiently describe the duties precluded a finding that a bachelor's degree in a specific field was the actual minimum requirement for the position.
