Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial capacity. The AAO found that the submitted job description was too general, lacked specific details about the beneficiary's day-to-day tasks, and did not sufficiently differentiate the proposed role from that of the CEO or prove the beneficiary would be relieved of performing non-qualifying operational duties.
