H-1B Dismissed โ€” Information Technology (2020): did not establish the proffered position of a UAT lead

๐Ÿ“… 2020-05-21 ๐Ÿ‘ค Company ๐Ÿ“‚ Information Technology

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of a UAT lead qualifies as a specialty occupation. The record did not describe the position's duties with sufficient detail, nor did it demonstrate that the role requires a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty. The submitted contracts were deemed to have little probative weight as they were too general and did not commit the parties to any specific work for the beneficiary.
