L-1A Dismissed โ Dental Equipment: did not establish the beneficiary would be employed in a
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. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the beneficiary's described duties involved performing day-to-day operational tasks essential to the business, rather than primarily overseeing other managers or setting high-level policy. The evidence and arguments provided on appeal were insufficient to overcome the director's initial findings.
