dismissed L-1A Case: Export / Trade
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary, the company's president, would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director concluded that the evidence did not sufficiently demonstrate that the beneficiary's duties were primarily managerial or executive in nature, as opposed to performing the day-to-day operational tasks necessary to run the new office.
