Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, concluding the submitted Labor Condition Application (LCA) for an 'Operations Research Analyst' did not correspond to the proffered 'data analyst' position. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the job duties did sufficiently correspond to the occupational classification on the LCA and that the position qualified as a specialty occupation due to its complexity.
