Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a new office, failed to establish that the U.S. operation would support a primarily managerial or executive position within one year of approval. The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence, such as a business plan or details on its proposed organizational structure and financial goals, to demonstrate a realistic expectation of growth sufficient to relieve the beneficiary from performing non-qualifying day-to-day operational tasks.
