L-1A Dismissed โ Restaurant: did not establish the beneficiary would be employed in a
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 new office extension. The director also found that the petitioner did not prove it had been 'doing business' for the previous year. The petitioner's evidence regarding the beneficiary's duties and the company's limited staffing was insufficient to overcome these findings.
