EB-1C Dismissed โ International Trade (2017): the Director denied the petition, and the appeal was
Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, and the appeal was dismissed, because the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary would be employed in the U.S. primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The submitted job description was found to be overly broad and merely paraphrased statutory definitions without providing specifics of day-to-day duties. Furthermore, given the company's small staffing levels, it was determined to be more likely than not that the beneficiary would need to allocate significant time to non-managerial operational tasks.
