dismissed L-1A Case: Jewelry
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 for the L-1A extension petition. The director's denial noted that the petitioner's staffing levels did not appear sufficient to relieve the beneficiary from performing non-qualifying day-to-day operational tasks, a conclusion the AAO upheld.
