L-1A Dismissed — Restaurant (2020): the petitioner failed to challenge the Director's finding
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to challenge the Director's finding that the beneficiary was not employed abroad in a managerial capacity, thereby abandoning the issue. Furthermore, the AAO found the submitted evidence, including the job description and organizational chart, was insufficient to prove the beneficiary's foreign role was primarily managerial rather than performing day-to-day operational tasks.
Criteria Discussed
Employment Abroad In A Managerial/Executive Capacity Proposed U.S. Employment In A Managerial/Executive Capacity New Office Requirements
