L-1A Dismissed — Education (2018): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in an executive capacity. The Director and the AAO found the beneficiary's job description to be vague, focused on non-qualifying operational tasks like sales and marketing, and noted a lack of sufficient subordinate staff to relieve her of these day-to-day duties.
