Does USCIS consider Online Master Degree from US University

Hi,
I had to come back to India as my H1B Amendment did not get approved and my company did not even apply for my H1B Extension. My Education qualification is BE (Mechanical Engineering) + MBA from India. The denial was because of Specialty Occupation issue. I am planning to do an Online Masters from a recognized US University while in India. But I am not sure if I do an Online Masters from US University while in India, will USCIS consider the online Master Degree for H1B approval. Can anyone provide some information if this online Master degree is a valid option to qualify as a Master holder as per USCIS?

Your are planning to do..but not sure if you can do ?? an email to university will clear this doubt easily. (no guarantee having an online degree will help h1b)

for approval you will need petition with REAL job offer from REAL COMPANY, on top of that your JD should match SOC code.

Read through in forum there are plenty of examples where beneficiary's have discussed similar scenario.

Good luck
