Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an entertainment agency filing as an agent, failed to provide the required copies of contracts between the beneficiary and her actual employers. The director's denial was based on this specific regulatory requirement for agent petitioners, and the appeal did not overcome this deficiency.
