dismissed L-1A Case: Restaurant
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed for both procedural and substantive reasons. The petitioner failed to file the motion on the required Form I-290B and did not provide new evidence to overcome the prior denial, which found a lack of proof that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity or that the U.S. company was financially viable and had been 'doing business' for the required one-year period.
Criteria Discussed
Managerial Or Executive Capacity Financial Status Of U.S. Operation Doing Business For One Year Motion To Reopen Requirements
