Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found that the description of the beneficiary's duties was not sufficiently detailed, and with only two employees in the U.S. entity, it was not established that the beneficiary would be primarily managing personnel or a key function rather than performing day-to-day operational tasks.
