Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of Veterinary Technician qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO, referencing the Occupational Outlook Handbook, determined that a bachelor's degree is not the normal minimum requirement for the role. The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence to prove the position's complexity, an industry-wide degree requirement, or a consistent history of requiring a degree for the position.
