Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove it had secured sufficient physical premises for its new U.S. office, as required for a new office L-1 petition. The evidence, including a short-term 'virtual office' agreement and inconsistent payment records, was deemed insufficient to demonstrate a genuine physical location for the business operations.
