H-1B Dismissed — Social Services (2004): did not establish the proffered position of executive

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of executive director qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the petitioner did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for the role, as the petitioner would accept degrees in several different fields and occupational handbooks did not support a specific degree requirement.
