Dismissed L-1A

L-1A Dismissed โ€” Lighting Products (2021): did not establish the beneficiary's position in the U.S

๐Ÿ“… 2021-02-25 ๐Ÿ‘ค Company ๐Ÿ“‚ Lighting Products

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's position in the U.S. is primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. Although the petitioner provided a list of high-level duties, the AAO determined that given the small size of the company and limited staff, the beneficiary would likely be engaged in day-to-day operational activities rather than primarily directing the organization.
