Decision Summary
The director denied the petition because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial capacity and that the U.S. entity was a qualifying organization. The AAO's review focuses on the managerial capacity, finding that the beneficiary's duties at a small coffee kiosk were primarily operational and not managerial, as they involved performing the day-to-day services of the business.
