Decision Summary

The appeal was rejected on procedural grounds, not on the merits of the case. The underlying Form I-140 petition was not signed by the petitioner as required by regulation, but was instead signed by the petitioner's attorney. Because the petition was not properly filed, the AAO could not pursue further action and rejected the appeal.
