Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the new U.S. business would support a managerial or executive position within one year of commencing operations. The AAO agreed with the director that the evidence did not demonstrate the beneficiary would be employed in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity, and counsel's arguments on appeal were deemed insufficient to overcome this finding.
