EB-1C Dismissed โ Retail Management (2017): the Director denied the petition, and the appeal was likely
Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, and the appeal was likely dismissed, because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity. The evidence, including staffing levels and job duties of subordinate employees, suggested that the beneficiary would be a first-line supervisor of non-professional staff and primarily engaged in the day-to-day operational tasks of the business, rather than high-level management or executive functions.
