dismissed EB-1C Case: Cocoa Processing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad or would be employed in the U.S. in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity. The director concluded, and the AAO agreed, that the beneficiary's duties were primarily performing daily operational tasks rather than high-level management. The petitioner's argument that the beneficiary was a 'function manager' was found unpersuasive and inconsistent with the evidence provided.
