Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a plumbing company, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'total quality management specialist' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet any of the four regulatory criteria, such as proving that a bachelor's degree is a normal requirement for such a position in the industry or that the duties are sufficiently complex to necessitate a degree.

Criteria Discussed
