Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was granted, but the previous decision to dismiss the appeal was affirmed. The AAO found that the petitioner failed to establish that the original decision was based on an incorrect application of law, particularly regarding the standard for 'primarily' managerial or executive capacity. The petitioner also did not address the previously noted failure to establish a qualifying relationship with the foreign entity.
