Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a new office, failed to demonstrate it had secured sufficient physical premises at the time the petition was filed. The AAO also noted that the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship, as it was a separate corporation, not a branch, and provided inconsistent evidence of stock ownership to prove a subsidiary or affiliate relationship.
