Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The evidence showed the beneficiary was the sole employee of the U.S. entity and spent the majority of his time (60% sales, 30% administration) performing the non-qualifying, day-to-day operational tasks of the business.
