dismissed L-1A Case: Retail Clothing
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 initial description of duties insufficient and, despite a request for evidence, the petitioner did not adequately demonstrate that the beneficiary's role would consist mainly of qualifying high-level tasks rather than the day-to-day operational activities of its retail stores.
