Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'programmer analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the job duties were described in vague and general terms, failing to establish the complexity required for a specialty occupation. Additionally, the petitioner did not prove that sufficient, non-speculative work was available for the beneficiary for the entire requested period.
