dismissed L-1A Case: Real Estate Investment
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, as required for an L-1A extension. The director also found that the petitioner, a new office with only one employee and one failed project, did not prove it had been 'doing business' for the previous year.
