sustained EB-1C Case: Airline
Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition, finding that the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary would be employed in a qualifying managerial capacity. The appeal was sustained because additional evidence clarified the beneficiary's role within the complex organizational structure, showing they would oversee managerial and supervisory employees, not just professionals, and would not be performing daily non-qualifying tasks.
