Decision Summary
The petition, an extension for a new office, was denied because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily executive or managerial capacity. The AAO dismissed the appeal, agreeing that the evidence was insufficient to demonstrate that the beneficiary's duties were primarily managerial or executive rather than performing the day-to-day operational tasks necessary to run the business.
