H-1B Dismissed — Technology Consulting (2017): did not establish the proffered 'systems analyst' position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'systems analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO noted the petitioner submitted two distinctly different job descriptions, and even so, failed to demonstrate that the duties required a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty. The initial denial also found that the petitioner did not sufficiently establish a valid employer-employee relationship.
