Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish it had secured sufficient physical premises for its new office, as the 250-square-foot space was deemed inadequate for its stated immediate and near-term hiring plans. Additionally, the petitioner did not prove it had the financial ability to pay the beneficiary and commence business, as evidence of the foreign parent's finances did not show any transfer of funds to the U.S. entity.
Criteria Discussed
