dismissed EB-1C Case: Food Industry
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 director noted that the petitioner relies on contracted staff and the beneficiary personally renders the company's professional services, indicating a hands-on operational role rather than a managerial one. Additionally, the AAO noted a critical issue that the petitioner's corporate status had been dissolved, raising questions about its continued existence as a legal entity.
