Decision Summary
The director denied the petition because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, and that a qualifying relationship existed because the U.S. entity was not proven to be 'doing business.' The AAO dismissed the appeal, focusing on the petitioner's failure to demonstrate that the beneficiary's duties were primarily managerial or executive rather than performing the day-to-day tasks of the business.
