Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the small size and scope of the U.S. business (a single gas station/convenience store) suggested the beneficiary would be required to perform day-to-day operational tasks rather than the high-level duties described.
