Decision Summary
The director denied the petition on two grounds: the beneficiary was not serving in a managerial or executive capacity, and the petitioner failed to prove it had been doing business for the previous year as required for a new office extension. The petitioner's appeal only addressed the 'doing business' issue, failing to contest the finding on the beneficiary's capacity, and also failed to provide requested evidence on staffing, which led the AAO to dismiss the appeal.
