dismissed L-1A Case: Shipping
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in the United States in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director determined that based on the proposed duties, and the fact the beneficiary would have no subordinate employees, the beneficiary would be performing non-qualifying operational tasks rather than primarily managerial or executive functions.
