L-1A Dismissed — Textiles: did not establish a qualifying affiliate relationship
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a qualifying affiliate relationship between the U.S. and foreign entities at the time the petition was filed. The director found that the sole owner of the foreign entity owned only 15 percent of the U.S. company, which was insufficient to establish control, and a stock transfer submitted on appeal occurred after the filing date.
