dismissed L-1A Case: Account Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO affirmed the director's finding that the beneficiary failed to meet the requirement of having at least one continuous year of full-time employment abroad with a qualifying organization within the three years preceding the petition. The beneficiary's stay in the United States in L-2 status was considered interruptive of the required foreign employment, and therefore he did not have qualifying employment within the required timeframe.
