Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'data warehouse analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found the job duties were not described with sufficient detail, and the petitioner had misrepresented the contractual chain to the end-client, a material fact which undermined the petition's credibility.
