dismissed L-1A Case: Business
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to overcome two grounds for denial. First, it did not prove it had secured sufficient physical premises for its new office at the time of filing, as its lease had expired before the filing date and the new lease began months later. Second, the petitioner failed to submit sufficient documentation to establish a qualifying corporate relationship with the beneficiary's foreign employer.
