dismissed L-1A Case: Real Estate / Import-Export
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. entity and the foreign entity. The director noted that the capitalization funds for the U.S. company came from an apparently unrelated company, not the claimed foreign parent. The petitioner also failed to establish that it had secured sufficient physical premises to house the new office.
