Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor's degree in a specialty occupation. The director found the beneficiary's education was in commerce and business, not a relevant field like computer science, and his work experience was insufficient to bridge the gap to a bachelor's degree equivalency.
