L-1A Dismissed — Furniture Trade (2005): did not establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. Conflicting evidence was submitted regarding ownership, as the petitioner's tax return indicated the beneficiary owned 80% of the U.S. company, which contradicted the claim that it was a subsidiary of the Chinese entity. The petitioner also failed to provide requested evidence that the foreign entity had paid for its shares in the U.S. company.
