dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Marketing

U.S. Citizenship 
and Immigration 
Services 
Non-Precedent Decision of the
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date: JAN. 10, 2024 In Re: 27546274 
Motion on Administrative Appeals Office Decision 
Form 1-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Workers (National Interest Waiver) 
The Petitioner, a marketing manager, seeks employment-based second preference (EB-2) immigrant 
classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. See Immigration and 
Nationality Act (the Act) section 203(b )(2), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b )(2). The Petitioner also seeks a 
national interest waiver of the job offer requirement that is attached to this EB-2 immigrant 
classification. See section 203(b)(2)(B)(i) of the Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2)(B)(i). U.S. Citizenship 
and Immigration Services (USCIS) may grant this discretionary waiver of the required job offer, and 
thus of a labor certification, when it is in the national interest to do so. 
The Director of the Texas Service Center denied the petition, concluding that the Petitioner did not 
establish eligibility for a national interest waiver. We summarily dismissed a subsequent appeal. The 
matter is now before us on motion to reconsider. 
The Petitioner bears the burden of proof to demonstrate eligibility by a preponderance of the evidence. 
Matter of Chawathe, 25 I&N Dec. 369, 375-76 (AAO 2010). Upon review, we will dismiss the 
motion. 
A motion to reconsider must establish that our prior decision was based on an incorrect application of 
law or policy and that the decision was incorrect based on the evidence in the record of proceedings 
at the time of the decision. 8 C.F.R. § 103.5(a)(3). Our review on motion is limited to reviewing our 
latest decision. 8 C.F.R. § 103.5(a)(l)(ii) . We may grant motions that satisfy these requirements and 
demonstrate eligibility for the requested benefit. 
On motion, the Petitioner contests the correctness of our prior decision. We summarily dismissed the 
appeal because a brief was not timely received subsequent to the filing of the appeal. On motion, the 
Petitioner asserts that a brief and supporting evidence was filed timely. The Petitioner submits a UPS 
delivery no[ ification dated August 11, 2022, for a ripment sent from the law firm of the Petitioner 's 
attorney to ....______________ __,Maryland. 
The instructions on Form 1-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, provide the option to either call the 
National Customer Service Center (known also as the USCIS Contact Center) or to visit a USCIS 
website to determine the correct filing address for an appeal or motion. The website, www.uscis.gov/i-
290b-addresses, provides addresses based on the subject of the appeal or motion and the delivery 
service used. For an appeal or motion on a decision made by a USCIS service center for a Form 1-
140, the correct filing address for UPS deliveries is shown as Box 21100, 2108 East Elliot Road in 
Tempe, Arizona. 
It appears that the Petitioner did not properly file the appeal brief at the appropriate address. As such, 
we consider our latest decision to dismiss the appeal because we did not timely receive an appeal brief 
to be correct. The Petitioner has not established that our prior decision was based on an incorrect 
application of law or policy and that the decision was incorrect based on the evidence in the record of 
proceedings at the time of the decision. 
ORDER: The motion to reconsider is dismissed.
