H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2020): did not establish the proffered 'technical project manager'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered 'technical project manager' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined the petitioner did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is normally required for the role, or that the job duties were sufficiently complex to require such a degree. The decision also noted unresolved credibility issues stemming from the petitioner submitting a document that appeared to be plagiarized.
