dismissed H-1B Case: Video Security Systems
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the proffered position did not qualify as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that although the position was titled 'electrical engineer,' the actual duties described were those of a general manager or chief executive, which do not require a degree in a specific specialty. The petitioner failed to meet any of the four regulatory criteria to establish the position as a specialty occupation.
