Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the proffered position of 'programmer analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence, particularly from the end-client, demonstrating that the job duties were complex or specialized enough to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field. The description of duties was deemed too generic and lacked the necessary detail to prove the position's professional nature.
