Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected as untimely filed. The petitioner submitted the appeal to the correct service center 47 days after the decision was issued, exceeding the 33-day deadline. The AAO also noted that even if the appeal had been timely, it would have been summarily dismissed because the petitioner failed to specifically identify any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact in the original denial.
