Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The AAO found that since the petitioner had no employees other than the beneficiary, her duties were not primarily managerial, as she would likely be responsible for day-to-day operational and administrative tasks instead of supervising staff or managing an essential function.
