Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it had been 'doing business' for the previous year, a requirement for a new office extension.

The director had also initially found that the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary was employed abroad in a primarily managerial or executive capacity.
