Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'business intelligence analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner's requirement for a general bachelor's degree in business or communications was found insufficient, as a specialty occupation requires a degree in a specific specialty directly related to the position's duties. The petitioner also failed to meet at least one of the four regulatory criteria to establish the position as a specialty occupation.

Criteria Discussed

Normal Degree Requirement For Position Degree Common To Industry / Unique Or Complex Position Employer Normally Requires Degree Specialized And Complex Duties Requirement For A Degree In A Specific Specialty
