Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition for two reasons: failure to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities, and failure to prove the beneficiary was employed abroad in a managerial or executive capacity. Although the petitioner successfully established the qualifying relationship on appeal, the AAO ultimately dismissed the appeal, indicating the petitioner failed to overcome the second ground for denial regarding the beneficiary's duties.
