dismissed H-1B Case: Transportation
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of Transportation Manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO, referencing the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, concluded that a baccalaureate degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for entry into the occupation, as work experience is cited as the most significant source of training.
