Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of marketing and publicity manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet any of the four regulatory criteria, noting that the Occupational Outlook Handbook does not require a degree for the role and the petitioner provided insufficient evidence to prove a degree was an industry standard or that the specific duties were complex enough to necessitate a degree.
