L-1A Remanded — Business Management (2021): the Director's denial was procedurally flawed
Decision Summary
The case was remanded because the Director's denial was procedurally flawed. The Director overlooked evidence submitted by the petitioner and did not analyze the petitioner's eligibility under the specific 'new office' criteria, thus not providing a sufficient basis for denial and warranting a new decision.
Criteria Discussed
Managerial/Executive Capacity (U.S. Employment) Managerial/Executive Capacity (Foreign Employment) New Office Requirements
