dismissed H-1B Case: Marketing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'Marketing Coordinator' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the evidence, including the Occupational Outlook Handbook, did not show that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is a normal minimum requirement for the position. The AAO also noted inconsistencies in the petitioner's evidence, which cast doubt on the reliability of the claims made.
Criteria Discussed
Degree Is Normal Minimum Requirement Degree Is Common To The Industry Or Position Is Complex/Unique Employer Normally Requires A Degree Duties Are Specialized And Complex
