Decision Summary
The petitioner initially sought an L-1A visa for a managerial/executive role, but after receiving a notice of intent to deny, conceded that the beneficiary would not be employed in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity. Although the petitioner then argued for eligibility under the L-1B specialized knowledge category, the AAO dismissed the appeal on the grounds that the petitioner had explicitly failed to demonstrate eligibility for the L-1A managerial/executive position originally sought.
