Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was denied because it was filed untimely, 59 days after the previous decision. The AAO also addressed the merits, stating that a prior O-1 nonimmigrant visa approval is not binding on an immigrant petition adjudication and that the petitioner's evidence was insufficient to establish original contributions of major significance to the field.
