Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director improperly denied the petition. The director's decision focused solely on the U.S. entity operating as a franchise, concluding this automatically negated a qualifying relationship. The AAO determined the director failed to analyze the actual evidence of the claimed parent-subsidiary relationship, which is based on ownership and control, and instructed the director to issue a new decision after a proper review.
