H-1B Dismissed โ Information Technology (2020): did not establish it was legally authorized to conduct
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove it was legally authorized to conduct business in Texas without interruption from the time of filing. Evidence submitted in response to a Notice of Intent to Dismiss indicated a lapse in the company's status due to franchise tax issues, which meant a bona fide job offer did not exist to support the petition.
