Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the AAO concluded that the petitioning U.S. entity did not legally exist. An investigation found no record of the company in the New York Department of State database and determined that the petitioner had submitted a fraudulent, altered filing receipt belonging to another corporation. Without a legitimate U.S. entity, the petitioner could not establish a U.S. employer or the required qualifying relationship with the beneficiary's foreign employer.
