H-1B Dismissed — Information Technology (2017): did not establish the proffered position of network
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of network administrator qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner provided a generic list of duties but submitted no evidence of actual, available work or specific projects for the beneficiary, despite a request for such evidence. This lack of detail on the substantive nature of the work precluded a finding that the position met any of the regulatory criteria for a specialty occupation.
