Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered software engineer position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director found the evidence insufficient to demonstrate that a bachelor's degree is a normal industry requirement for the position or that the specific duties are so complex they necessitate a degree. Additionally, the director found the beneficiary was not qualified to perform the duties of a specialty occupation.
