sustained EB-1C Case: International Freight Forwarding
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner successfully established that the beneficiary's roles with both the foreign and U.S. entities met the definitions of managerial and/or executive capacity. The director had initially denied the petition for lack of evidence, but on appeal, the petitioner provided detailed job descriptions, organizational charts, and a breakdown of duties that sufficiently demonstrated the beneficiary's high-level supervisory responsibilities and discretionary authority over the company's operations.
