L-1A Dismissed โ Real Estate And Export (2019): the motion to reopen and reconsider was denied, upholding
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was denied, upholding the appeal's dismissal. The petitioner failed to establish that the new U.S. office would support a primarily managerial or executive position within one year, as the beneficiary's proposed duties were overly broad and lacked specific tasks. The petitioner's business and staffing plans were not sufficient to demonstrate that the business would realistically develop to the point of requiring a manager or executive within the required timeframe.
