H-1B Dismissed — Supply Chain (2023): did not establish the proffered 'supply chain planner'

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'supply chain planner' position is a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that the position does not require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, as evidenced by the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, which indicates that logisticians can hold degrees in a wide variety of fields. This lack of a specific, specialized degree requirement means the position does not meet the statutory definition of a specialty occupation.
