Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO agreed with the Director's dismissal of the motion to reconsider, finding it did not establish an incorrect application of law or policy. Even when considering the merits, the AAO found the petitioner failed to establish the underlying EB-2 eligibility, specifically by not providing sufficient evidence to prove the required five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience.
