Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because it was filed untimely. The appeal was received on April 5, 2004, over 10 months after the director's decision was issued on May 23, 2003, far exceeding the 33-day filing deadline. The AAO concluded that unlike late motions, there is no regulatory provision to excuse an untimely appeal.
