Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad in a primarily managerial capacity for the required one-year period. The Director noted that payroll documents listed the beneficiary's title as 'team lead,' a role which included significant operational duties, rather than the claimed 'development lead.' The AAO agreed with the Director's finding that the evidence did not prove the beneficiary's duties were primarily managerial during the qualifying time frame.
