dismissed L-1A Case: Dry Cleaning
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it had secured sufficient physical premises to house the new office. The petitioner provided evidence of a 'virtual office' agreement, but the AAO determined this was merely a 'Mailbox Plus' service and was insufficient to commence actual business operations for a dry cleaning facility as required by regulation.
