Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that its new U.S. office would support a managerial or executive position within one year. The AAO found that the planned subordinate positions, such as the 'sales and marketing manager,' were not credibly managerial due to low salaries and the lack of their own subordinate staff, meaning the beneficiary would likely be engaged in operational rather than qualifying managerial duties.
