EB-1C Dismissed โ Pharmaceuticals (2017): did not establish the beneficiary was employed abroad and
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad and would be employed in the U.S. in a qualifying managerial capacity. The Director's denial was based on the finding that the provided job descriptions lacked sufficient detail to demonstrate that the beneficiary's role was primarily managerial rather than operational, a conclusion upheld by the AAO on de novo review.
Criteria Discussed
