Decision Summary

The appeal was sustained because the petitioner successfully demonstrated that the proposed accountant position was not merely a clerical or bookkeeping role. The petitioner provided evidence that data entry was handled by other personnel and an outside service, and the AAO, consulting the Occupational Outlook Handbook, determined the position was that of a management accountant, which normally requires a bachelor's degree and therefore qualifies as a specialty occupation.
