Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish that its new office would support the Beneficiary in a managerial position within one year of the petition's approval. The AAO found the Petitioner's business plan to be incongruent with its supporting cover letter and questioned the credibility of its staffing model and the proposed duties for its employees. Therefore, the evidence did not demonstrate that the business would realistically develop to a point requiring a full-time manager within the required timeframe.
