L-1A Dismissed โ Information Services (2006): did not establish the beneficiary had one continuous year
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary had one continuous year of employment abroad. The beneficiary was only physically employed in Venezuela for two months before entering the U.S. in F-1 student status, and the petitioner's claim that he continued working for the foreign company from the U.S. did not satisfy the regulatory requirement.
