H-1B Dismissed โ Law (2025): did not establish the proffered position of a bilingual
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of a bilingual client case manager qualified as a specialty occupation. The Director found the acceptable degree fields were too disparate, and the AAO added that the job duties were overly vague and generic, largely copied from the Department of Labor's O*NET database. This lack of specific, substantive duties made it impossible to determine if the position truly required a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
