dismissed L-1A Case: Textile Import
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. The director noted that the U.S. company had only one employee, raising concerns that the beneficiary would be engaged in non-qualifying day-to-day operational tasks. The petitioner's assertion that it intended to purchase a retail store with additional employees was deemed insufficient to overcome this deficiency.
