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. The director found the evidence insufficient to demonstrate that the beneficiary's duties were distinct from the day-to-day operational tasks of the convenience store, despite claims that he spent 100% of his time on managerial tasks.
