Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition, concluding the 'management analyst' role did not qualify as a specialty occupation. On appeal, the AAO conducted a de novo review and found that the position's specific duties were sufficiently specialized and complex to require knowledge usually associated with a bachelor's degree, thereby meeting the specialty occupation requirements.
