Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. The AAO found that the petitioner did not demonstrate the required ownership and control for either a parent-subsidiary or an affiliate relationship, as the ownership structures did not meet regulatory definitions and there was no evidence of a legally bound group controlling both companies.
