EB-1C Sustained โ Trade Promotion (2005): the AAO found that the petitioner sufficiently established
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the petitioner sufficiently established its ability to pay the beneficiary's wage, acknowledging that the financially viable foreign parent entity would continue to pay the salary. Additionally, the AAO determined that evidence of the petitioner's trade promotion activities and its employment of multiple staff demonstrated it was engaged in the regular, systematic, and continuous provision of services, and thus was 'doing business' in the United States.
