dismissed L-1A Case: Industrial Cleaning
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found it unreasonable that a small industrial cleaning company with limited revenue and staff would require a full-time manager, concluding that the beneficiary would likely be performing the non-qualifying day-to-day tasks of the business rather than primarily managing.
