H-1B Dismissed — Transportation (2006): did not establish the proffered position of sea freight

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of sea freight manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director found the duties were similar to those of a cargo and freight agent, an occupation which does not normally require a bachelor's degree in a specific field. The petitioner did not prove that a degree was the normal requirement, that the position was uniquely complex, or that the beneficiary was qualified for a specialty occupation.
