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. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the beneficiary's proposed duties included numerous non-managerial, operational tasks such as customer relations, accounting, and inventory, which are inconsistent with a primarily managerial role, especially given the small size of the U.S. company.
