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

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'technical analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. Specifically, the evidence did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for the position, as the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook indicates that degrees in various fields like computer science, business, or liberal arts could be acceptable.
