Decision Summary

The AAO dismissed the petitioner's combined motions to reopen and reconsider. The previous motion was rejected as untimely, having been filed 89 days after the decision, which is beyond the 60-day flexibility period granted during the COVID-19 pandemic. The petitioner's arguments regarding clerical errors and postal delays were insufficient as the regulations do not provide discretion to excuse an untimely filed motion to reconsider.
