dismissed L-1A Case: Embroidery
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the record lacked a comprehensive description of qualifying duties and the small number of subordinate employees suggested the beneficiary would be performing day-to-day operational tasks rather than managing the organization.
