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 insufficient evidence that the foreign entity actually paid for the U.S. entity's stock, and thus failed to prove the required ownership and control. The petitioner's arguments and documentation on appeal were not sufficient to overcome this finding.
