dismissed L-1A Case: Hair Styling
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish three key requirements for the L-1A extension. The director determined, and the AAO agreed, that the petitioner did not prove the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, that a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. and foreign entities, or that the beneficiary's employment was for a temporary period.
