dismissed L-1A Case: Business Consulting
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, and that a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. and foreign entities. The director noted that the beneficiary's proposed duties included non-qualifying tasks like bookkeeping and secretarial work, and the petitioner did not sufficiently prove it had secured a physical office for business operations.
