dismissed EB-1C Case: Sales And Marketing
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, and the AAO dismissed the appeal, because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in the United States in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The decision focused on the U.S. entity's small staff size, which consisted of only the beneficiary and one sales manager, concluding it was not credible that the beneficiary would spend the majority of his time on qualifying managerial duties rather than the day-to-day operational tasks of the business.
