Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was denied because the petitioner failed to establish two key eligibility criteria. First, the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence to prove the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity within one year at the new U.S. office. Second, the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary had completed the required one year of continuous employment abroad, as regulations stipulate that time spent physically present in the U.S. does not count towards this requirement.
