Decision Summary

The motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed primarily for procedural failures, including not submitting a required statement about judicial proceedings. The motion to reopen improperly submitted evidence that post-dated the petition filing date, and the motion to reconsider did not identify any legal or factual errors in the AAO's prior decision. The AAO affirmed its previous finding that the petitioner failed to meet any of the regulatory criteria for the classification sought.
