EB-1C Dismissed — International Trade (2001): did not establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities and did not prove that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The AAO rejected the petitioner's argument that prior approvals of L-1A nonimmigrant petitions should be binding, stating that each immigrant petition is a separate proceeding with its own burden of proof.
