Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities. The director initially denied the case for lack of evidence on the qualifying relationship, the beneficiary's proposed managerial capacity, and the new office's ability to support the position. The petitioner's evidence, including a flawed and later amended stock certificate, was insufficient to prove the foreign entity's ownership and control over the U.S. company.
