dismissed EB-1C Case: Hotel Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's position qualified as a primarily managerial capacity. The director revoked the initial approval, noting that the beneficiary supervised non-professional staff, making her a first-line supervisor rather than a manager under the statute. The petitioner's rebuttal that the beneficiary managed an essential function was insufficient to overcome this determination.
