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 in the United States. The AAO found that the petitioner did not clearly define the role as either managerial or executive and failed to prove the beneficiary's duties were sufficiently high-level and distinct from day-to-day operational tasks.
