dismissed EB-1C Case: Jewelry Design And Retail
Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected on procedural grounds, not on its merits. The AAO determined the appeal was improperly filed because the beneficiary, not the petitioning company, filed the appeal. Under regulations, a beneficiary of a visa petition is not considered an 'affected party' and therefore lacks the legal standing to file an appeal.
