L-1A Dismissed โ Marketing Consultancy (2005): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. At the time of filing, the U.S. entity had no employees other than the beneficiary, leading the director to conclude the beneficiary was engaged in day-to-day operational tasks rather than high-level management. Evidence submitted on appeal was insufficient to overcome this finding.
