Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director concluded that the beneficiary's described duties were not sufficient to meet the statutory definitions, especially for a small dry cleaning business. The AAO also noted in a footnote that the petitioner's corporate status had been administratively dissolved, calling into question its continued eligibility as a qualifying organization.
