L-1A Dismissed — Persian Rugs (2009): did not establish the beneficiary primarily performed

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary primarily performed qualifying managerial or executive duties abroad. The evidence provided, including a vague one-sentence job description, was insufficient to detail the beneficiary's day-to-day tasks or the nature of his supervision over subordinate staff. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that the intended new U.S. operation would support an executive or managerial position within one year.
