L-1A Dismissed — Hotel Management (2008): did not establish the new U.S
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the new U.S. operation would support a managerial or executive position within one year, and admitted the beneficiary would perform non-qualifying tasks for longer than that period. The petitioner also failed to prove it had secured sufficient physical premises, as it did not submit a lease for the claimed office space.
