dismissed L-1A Case: Dairy Production
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the evidence submitted, such as wire transfers and tax forms, did not definitively prove the claimed parent-subsidiary ownership. Specifically, tax documents indicated no foreign ownership, and financial transfers did not appear to originate from the claimed foreign parent.
