dismissed L-1A Case: Entertainment Production
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it had secured sufficient physical premises to house its new office at the time of filing. The submitted 'lease' was for virtual office services, including mail receipt and hourly room reservations, which was deemed inadequate to support the proposed enterprise. The AAO noted that eligibility must be established at the time of filing and future plans to secure a larger office were not sufficient.
