Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a real estate company, failed to prove it was 'doing business' as required for an L-1A new office extension. The director found that merely purchasing two properties and planning for future construction did not meet the regulatory definition of a regular, systematic, and continuous provision of goods or services. The AAO agreed that the evidence was insufficient to establish that the petitioner was a qualifying organization.
