Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying corporate relationship with the beneficiary's foreign employer. The director found that the evidence, including stock certificates, indicated the foreign entity owned only about 24% of the U.S. company's authorized shares. This was further contradicted by the petitioner's own tax return, which denied that any foreign person owned 25% or more of the company's stock.
