L-1A Dismissed โ Marketing (2018): did not establish the new U.S
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the new U.S. office would employ the beneficiary in a primarily executive capacity within one year. The beneficiary's proposed duties included non-qualifying operational tasks, and the planned staffing of only an assistant and a sales representative in the first year was deemed insufficient to relieve the beneficiary from performing the day-to-day functions of the enterprise.
