dismissed L-1A Case: Construction

📅 Date unknown 👤 Company 📂 Construction

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed by the foreign entity in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, or that the proposed U.S. role would be primarily managerial or executive. As a new office petition, the petitioner did not show that the U.S. operation would support such a position within one year. The AAO also noted that the petition was improperly filed because it was signed by counsel rather than an officer of the petitioning company.
