dismissed EB-1C Case: Hotel Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity. The director determined that the staff members directly under the beneficiary's supervision (doorpersons, bell-persons) are not considered professional, which means the beneficiary's role is that of a non-qualifying first-line supervisor. The petitioner did not successfully rebut the finding that the beneficiary's duties were not primarily managerial.
