L-1A Dismissed โ Import/Export Trade (2006): did not establish two key requirements for a new office
Decision Summary

The petitioner did not prove that the U.S. company had expanded enough to support the beneficiary in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, nor did it provide sufficient evidence that the company had been 'doing business' for the previous year.
