Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition for failing to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. petitioner and the foreign employer. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner demonstrated that it controlled the foreign entity through a limited partnership agreement, even with only minority ownership, thus meeting the definition of an indirect subsidiary.
