H-1B Dismissed — Shipping Services (2025): did not establish the offered management analyst position
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the offered management analyst position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The Director and the AAO found the position's duties to be generalized and abstract, and the petitioner did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty was a minimum requirement, thereby failing to satisfy any of the regulatory criteria.
