Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. The director denied the petition for lack of evidence demonstrating ownership and control. On appeal, the petitioner submitted a stock certificate, which the AAO deemed insufficient without more comprehensive evidence like a stock ledger, bylaws, and minutes of shareholder meetings.
