The transferee needs one continuous year of full-time employment abroad in a managerial, executive, or specialized-knowledge capacity within the relevant preceding three-year period, while the proposed American duties must be managerial or executive. Ownership can help explain the corporate relationship, but the qualifying employment abroad, the actual business activity of both organizations, and the managerial or executive nature of the proposed U.S. role still need to be independently established. Personnel management rests on supervising and controlling professional or supervisory staff; function management rests on managing an essential function at a senior level, which can fit a family business where the person owns purchasing, credit or service delivery without a large team beneath them. The question is whether the proposed US duties are primarily managerial or executive on the facts, and outsourcing shifts that inquiry toward who directs the providers, sets budgets, and decides the organisation's direction.
