Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the beneficiary is qualified for the specialty occupation position. The petitioner relied on an expert opinion letter to argue that the beneficiary's foreign degree and work experience were equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree, but the AAO found the letter's analysis flawed, as it was internally inconsistent and conflicted with the actual degree presented in the record.

Beneficiary Qualifications Equivalency To U.S. Bachelor'S Degree Combination Of Education And Experience Expert Opinion Letters
