L-1A Remanded — Manufacturing (2021): the Director's decision was withdrawn and the case remanded

Decision Summary

The Director's decision was withdrawn and the case remanded because the initial denial was based on an incomplete analysis. The Director concluded the Beneficiary did not manage professional or managerial staff, but failed to consider the alternative qualifying path of managing other supervisory employees. The matter was remanded for a new decision that takes this into account, although the AAO also noted deficiencies in the petitioner's evidence, such as a top-heavy organizational structure and the use of generic job descriptions.
