Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in an executive capacity. The Director found the job description was unrealistic for a 'new office' with only two employees, as there was insufficient subordinate staff to relieve the beneficiary from performing non-qualifying, day-to-day operational tasks.
