Decision Summary
The motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed because the original appeal was filed untimely. The appeal was received on the 34th day after the decision was issued, exceeding the 33-day limit. The AAO rejected the petitioner's arguments that the filing deadline fell on a legal holiday and that a postal service delay was a valid excuse.
