L-1A Dismissed โ Aviation (2004): did not establish its U.S
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that its U.S. entity, a new office, had been 'doing business' for the previous year. The evidence provided, consisting mainly of correspondence and product inquiries, did not establish a regular, systematic, and continuous provision of goods or services. The AAO also found the record confusing due to inconsistencies in corporate names and noted the U.S. entity was listed as 'inactive' with the state, undermining its status as a qualifying organization.
