dismissed L-1A Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity. The director and the AAO found that the beneficiary, who would be supervising only one employee in a small U.S. operation, would likely be performing day-to-day operational tasks rather than primarily managing personnel or an essential function.
