Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered 'business analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner's minimum requirement of a bachelor's degree in business administration is too general and does not constitute a degree in a 'specific specialty' as required. The decision noted that a wide range of degrees listed in the Occupational Outlook Handbook for similar positions further demonstrated that a degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for the occupation.
