Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found the employment to be speculative, as the submitted contracts and statements of work did not establish that sufficient work would be available for the beneficiary throughout the requested period. Furthermore, the job duty descriptions provided lacked sufficient detail and credibility to demonstrate that the position's duties are so specialized and complex as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
