sustained EB-1C Case: Funeral Services
Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition for failure to establish a qualifying relationship and for finding the beneficiary's foreign and proposed U.S. roles were not primarily managerial. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner submitted new evidence (a Form 10-K filing) proving the parent-subsidiary relationship, and the AAO concluded that the beneficiary's duties were in fact primarily managerial/executive despite involving some non-qualifying tasks.
Criteria Discussed
Qualifying Relationship (Parent/Subsidiary) Managerial Or Executive Capacity (Abroad) Managerial Or Executive Capacity (U.S.)
