dismissed EB-1C Case: Investment
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish two key requirements. First, it did not prove that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, as the described duties and small staff size suggested involvement in non-qualifying operational tasks. Second, the petitioner did not establish that the U.S. entity had been doing business for the required one-year period prior to filing the petition.
