H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2020): did not establish the proffered position of "master
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered position of "master sections analyst" qualifies as a specialty occupation. The record lacked sufficient detail from the end-client, where the work was to be performed, regarding the specific job duties and educational requirements. The duties provided by the petitioner were too vague and generalized to establish that the role required a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
