L-1A Dismissed — Commodity Trading (2021): did not establish the Beneficiary's proposed U.S
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to demonstrate that the Beneficiary's proposed U.S. employment would be primarily in a managerial capacity. The submitted job description allocated most of the Beneficiary's time to operational tasks rather than supervisory duties, and the record did not sufficiently establish the Petitioner's ability to support a managerial position.
Criteria Discussed
