EB-1C Dismissed — Online Gaming And Software Development (2019): did not establish it was 'doing business' in the United
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it was 'doing business' in the United States. The petitioner claimed it provided marketing services for its foreign parent, but its tax returns showed no income or marketing expenses, and an SEC filing by the parent company stated the U.S. entity conducted 'no substantive operations,' creating unresolved inconsistencies in the record.
