dismissed L-1A Case: Furniture Sales
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily executive or managerial capacity. The director found the description of the beneficiary's duties to be vague and a mere paraphrase of regulations, and the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence of staffing to demonstrate that the beneficiary would not be responsible for performing the non-qualifying, day-to-day operational tasks of the business.
