Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, seeking an extension for a new office, failed to provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the U.S. entity was fully operational and 'doing business' after the initial one-year period. The director also found that the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, noting a lack of evidence of additional employees.
