L-1A Dismissed — Wholesale Trade (2009): did not establish the beneficiary would be employed
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition for failing to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The AAO dismissed the appeal, noting that the issue was moot as public records showed the petitioning U.S. company was inactive and no longer doing business, which would be grounds for immediate revocation even if the petition were approved.
