Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship with the beneficiary's foreign employer. The petitioner submitted contradictory information about its ownership structure (first claiming a 75%/25% split, then a 51%/49% split) and did not sufficiently resolve the discrepancy with objective evidence, as the explanation of 'attorney error' was not accepted.
