dismissed L-1A Case: Show Dog Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the foreign entity and the U.S. petitioner were still 'qualifying organizations.' The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the foreign affiliate was still 'doing business' abroad, a key requirement. Evidence submitted, such as bank statements sent to the owner in the U.S. and a letter suggesting no taxable income was being generated, failed to prove the regular, systematic, and continuous provision of goods or services by the foreign entity.
