Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish two key requirements for the L-1A visa extension. The director concluded, and the AAO affirmed, that the petitioner did not prove it was 'doing business' in the United States, nor did it establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity.
