Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity for the visa extension. The director also found that the petitioner did not establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. The petitioner's arguments on appeal, which centered on the beneficiary's executive duties and claimed the director placed undue emphasis on low staffing levels, were not sufficient to overcome these deficiencies.
