dismissed EB-1C Case: Export/Trade
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The submitted organizational chart was inconsistent with tax records, which showed only three employees, suggesting the beneficiary would be involved in day-to-day operational tasks rather than high-level management. The AAO also noted concerns about the petitioner's legal standing as a corporation in Maryland.
