dismissed L-1A Case: Investment
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily executive or managerial capacity. The director found that due to the limited staffing of the U.S. company, the beneficiary would be primarily involved in performing the day-to-day operational services essential to running the business, rather than supervising a staff of professional or managerial personnel.
