Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a qualifying relationship existed between the U.S. and foreign entities at the time the petition was filed. Evidence showed that the foreign entity acquired shares in the U.S. company four months after the petition was submitted, and eligibility must be established at the time of filing, not at a future date.
