L-1A Dismissed — Restaurant: did not establish two key requirements for an L-1A

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish two key requirements for an L-1A extension for a new office. The director concluded, and the AAO agreed, that the petitioner did not prove the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, nor did they establish that the U.S. entity had been 'doing business' for the previous year as required.
