L-1A Dismissed — Electronic Payments (2017): did not establish the beneficiary would be primarily

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be primarily employed in an executive capacity. The beneficiary's proposed duties were found to be operational and administrative tasks for a start-up, or work performed on behalf of the foreign parent company, rather than high-level executive functions for the U.S. entity. The petitioner did not sufficiently detail the beneficiary's tasks or prove that the U.S. entity was sufficiently staffed to relieve him from performing non-qualifying duties.
