L-1A Dismissed — Retail (2005): did not establish the requirements for an L-1A extension

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the requirements for an L-1A extension for a new office. The director concluded that the petitioner did not prove the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, that the U.S. entity had been doing business for the previous year, or that a qualifying relationship existed with the foreign entity.
