H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2020): did not establish the proffered 'business system analyst'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'business system analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner's stated minimum educational requirement, a combination of foreign degrees in commerce and business administration, was too broad and did not establish the need for a U.S. bachelor's degree or its equivalent in a *specific* specialty directly related to the position's duties.
