Does the alien beneficiary need to have a bachelors or higher degree to qualify for a professional occupation?
* No, the alien does not need to have a bachelor’s or higher degree to qualify. However, if the employer is willing to accept work experience in lieu of a baccalaureate degree, such work experience must be attainable in the U.S. labor market and the employer’s willingness to accept work experience in lieu of a degree must apply equally to U.S. applicants and must be stated on the application form.
