L-1A Dismissed — Real Estate Development (2019): did not establish the beneficiary had one continuous year
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary had one continuous year of full-time employment abroad with the qualifying organization. The AAO found that discrepancies between the petition and the beneficiary's prior DS-160 nonimmigrant visa application, where he claimed employment with a different company, were not sufficiently overcome by a later declaration, thus failing to meet a fundamental eligibility requirement.
