Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the Beneficiary was employed abroad in a primarily managerial capacity. The petitioner did not prove that the subordinates the Beneficiary supervised were 'professionals,' as it failed to show a bachelor's degree was a minimum requirement for their roles. Additionally, the Beneficiary's position below a director and assistant director suggested that her duties were not as high-level as claimed and were likely more operational.
