dismissed EB-3 Case: Law
Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was denied, upholding a prior dismissal, because the petitioner, a law firm, failed to establish its ability to pay the proffered wage. The petitioner argued that wages paid by a separate New York entity should count, but the AAO found that despite common ownership, the two were distinct legal entities and the petitioner did not demonstrate ownership or control over the other entity's funds. The petitioner's own financial documents did not show sufficient net income or net current assets to cover the beneficiary's salary.
