dismissed L-1A Case: Retail
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 for a new office extension. The director concluded, and the AAO affirmed, that the petitioner had not grown sufficiently to support the beneficiary in such a role, and also failed to prove the foreign entity was still doing business and maintaining a qualifying relationship.
