L-1A Dismissed — Animation And Film Production (2017): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The Director and the AAO found the description of the beneficiary's duties to be overly vague, lacking specific day-to-day tasks, and insufficient to demonstrate that subordinate employees would relieve her from performing non-qualifying operational tasks.
