Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it had secured sufficient physical premises for its new office at the time of filing. Although the AAO found the petitioner did establish a qualifying relationship, it agreed with the Director that a lease amended after the petition was filed could not retroactively establish eligibility.
