Decision Summary
The director denied the petition because the evidence failed to show that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The AAO dismissed the appeal, agreeing that with only one other employee (a general assistant), the beneficiary would be performing the day-to-day operational tasks of the business rather than primarily managing the enterprise.
