dismissed L-1A Case: Automotive Repair
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the new U.S. office would support an executive or managerial position within one year. The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence of the required financial investment in the U.S. entity or prove the foreign entity's ability to remunerate the beneficiary and commence business. New evidence submitted on appeal was not considered as it was not part of the original record.
