dismissed L-1A Case: Mechanical Parts
Decision Summary
The director revoked the petition because the beneficiary would not be employed in a managerial or executive capacity after the first year, sufficient physical premises for the new office were not secured (only a 'virtual' office), and the foreign entity was not established as 'doing business'. The AAO dismissed the appeal, finding these substantive issues valid even after considering evidence that the petitioner's response to the Notice of Intent to Revoke was timely filed but overlooked by the director.
