dismissed H-1B Case: Software Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered software engineer position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner provided inconsistent and contradictory information regarding the beneficiary's work project. Additionally, documents submitted from the petitioner and the end-client contained identical errors and language, undermining their credibility and failing to prove the duties required a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
