dismissed H-1B Case: Moving And Storage
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the operations manager position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that requiring a general-purpose bachelor's degree, such as in business administration, is insufficient to meet the standard, which necessitates a degree in a specific specialty directly related to the job's duties.
