H-1B Dismissed — Project Management (2020): did not establish the proffered 'project consultant'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'project consultant' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found, based on the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook for 'Logisticians,' that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for entry into the occupation. The petitioner's inconsistent statements regarding the required degree further undermined their claim.
