dismissed L-1A Case: Hospitality
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director concluded that the petitioner failed to submit sufficient evidence to determine the exact nature of the beneficiary's duties and the relationship with subordinates, suggesting the beneficiary was performing day-to-day operational tasks of the business.
