dismissed L-1A Case: Software And Circuit Board Design
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, a key requirement for the L-1A visa. The director concluded that the evidence did not sufficiently demonstrate that the beneficiary's duties were primarily high-level management rather than day-to-day operational tasks, and the AAO agreed with this assessment.
