O-2 Dismissed — Television Production (2020): did not establish the beneficiary was in the U.S

Decision Summary

The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the beneficiary was in the U.S. solely for the purpose of assisting the O-1 artist. Evidence, including the beneficiary's tax returns, indicated income from self-employment and ownership of other businesses, and the petitioner did not provide sufficient documentation to overcome the finding that the beneficiary had been working separate and apart from the O-1 individual.
