remanded L-1B Case: Software Services
Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because although the AAO found the petitioner had successfully demonstrated the beneficiary possesses the required specialized knowledge, it identified a new issue. The AAO determined that the evidence was insufficient to establish a qualifying corporate relationship between the U.S. petitioner and the foreign employer, and sent the case back to the Director for further proceedings on that specific issue.
