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 given the small size of the U.S. dry cleaning business and its limited staff, the beneficiary would inevitably have to engage in the day-to-day operational tasks of the business. The petitioner's arguments on appeal failed to overcome this finding.
