sustained L-1A Case: Lottery Business Consultancy
Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, questioning the qualifying parent-subsidiary relationship because the payment for the U.S. entity's stock occurred over a year after its formation. The appeal was sustained because the petitioner provided sufficient corporate evidence, including stock certificates, meeting minutes, and a stock purchase agreement, to demonstrate that a qualifying relationship existed at the time of filing, explaining the late payment as a mere oversight.
