Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because while the petitioner successfully established that the beneficiary's proposed U.S. position qualifies as managerial, they failed to provide sufficient evidence proving the beneficiary was employed in a managerial capacity abroad for the required one-year period. The record lacked evidence regarding the beneficiary's earlier foreign position, which was necessary to complete the one-year requirement, prompting the case to be sent back for further evidence.
