This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.
Framework Evaluation
0 of 5 criteria metQualifying Relationship (Not Met)
The Petitioner did not establish that the U.S. and foreign employers are the same entity or related as parent, subsidiary, or affiliate.
Foreign Employment Duration (Not Met)
The Beneficiary entered the U.S. in 2010, but the Petitioner did not exist until 2013, exceeding the three-year limit for qualifying foreign experience.
Doing Business (Not Met)
The Petitioner failed to establish it had been doing business for at least one year prior to the petition's filing date.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner did not contest the Director's substantive grounds for denial, effectively waiving those issues. Furthermore, the Petitioner lacked a qualifying multinational relationship as it did not demonstrate operations outside the U.S., and the Beneficiary did not meet the requirement of one year of foreign employment within the three years preceding U.S. entry.

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish a qualifying relationship with the Beneficiary's foreign employer. Despite claiming the U.S. entity was wholly owned by the foreign employer, the submitted evidence, including a company agreement, unanimous consent document, and IRS Forms 1120, contained discrepancies and lacked crucial details like capital contribution amounts and membership certificates, failing to sufficiently prove ownership and control.
