Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, concluding the position was similar to a bookkeeper and not a specialty occupation. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the petitioner, a large company with nearly $139 million in annual revenue, had established that the specific duties of the accountant/financial analyst role were specialized and complex enough to require a bachelor's degree, thereby satisfying the criteria for a specialty occupation.
