dismissed E-2 Case: Business Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because the AAO lacks appellate jurisdiction over the denial of an E-2 Treaty Investor application for a change of status. The governing regulations explicitly state there is no appeal from such a denial, with a narrow exception for CNMI investors that did not apply in this case.
