L-1A Dismissed โ Wholesale And Distribution (2024): did not establish the beneficiary had one continuous year
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the beneficiary had one continuous year of qualifying employment abroad within the preceding three years. USCIS records and the petitioner's own statements indicated the beneficiary had been in the United States since 2015, including as a student, which contradicted the claim of employment in Uganda. The petitioner did not resolve these material inconsistencies with credible evidence.
Criteria Discussed
