dismissed H-1B Case: Market Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary was found unqualified for the specialty occupation of a market research analyst. The AAO determined that the beneficiary's foreign education, a bachelor's degree in commerce and a diploma in hotel administration, was not equivalent to the U.S. baccalaureate degree required for the role. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary qualified through a license or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
