Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence to show that the new U.S. office would have the ability to employ the beneficiary in a managerial capacity within one year of the petition's approval. While the petitioner established sufficient business premises and the beneficiary's prior managerial role abroad, the business plan and staffing projections were not sufficient to demonstrate the new office would grow to a point where the beneficiary would be relieved from performing primarily non-managerial, day-to-day operational tasks.
