Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director also found that the petitioner failed to establish that the U.S. entity is 'doing business,' as the evidence suggested the beneficiary was the sole employee and likely performing the day-to-day operational tasks himself rather than managing a function or other employees.
