Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the new office would support the beneficiary in a primarily managerial capacity within one year. The petitioner provided vague job descriptions that did not detail the beneficiary's actual day-to-day tasks or demonstrate that his duties would be primarily managerial, rather than operational tasks necessary to start the business.
