L-1A Dismissed โ Aluminum Products Distribution (2009): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed in a
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found deficiencies in proving both the proposed U.S. role and the prior foreign role were qualifying, and the evidence on appeal did not overcome these findings by sufficiently detailing how the beneficiary would be relieved of day-to-day operational duties.
