L-1A Dismissed — Real Estate Development (2017): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The submitted descriptions of the beneficiary's duties were conclusory, paraphrasing the statutory definitions without providing sufficient detail about day-to-day tasks. It was also unclear how the beneficiary's time was allocated between qualifying managerial duties and non-qualifying operational tasks, such as acting as an architect for all projects.
