dismissed EB-1C Case: Manufacturing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a qualifying relationship existed with the beneficiary's foreign employer at the time the petition was filed. The beneficiary's former foreign employer had been sold approximately two years prior to the filing, severing the required corporate relationship. The AAO affirmed that eligibility for the classification must exist at the time of filing.
