Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition, concluding the beneficiary was not qualified for the specialty occupation position. The appeal was sustained because on de novo review, the AAO found that the evidence established the beneficiary's foreign degree and coursework were equivalent to a U.S. baccalaureate or higher degree, meeting the qualification requirements.
