L-1A Dismissed โ Food Distribution: did not establish the beneficiary's role qualified as a
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's role qualified as a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director and the AAO found that the beneficiary's described duties, coupled with the small staffing of the U.S. office, indicated they were performing day-to-day operational tasks of the business rather than primarily directing the organization or its personnel.
