Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director incorrectly dismissed the Petitioner's motion to reopen as untimely. The AAO found that because the final day of the filing period fell on a Saturday, the deadline was extended to the following Monday, the day the motion was received. The case was sent back to the Director to consider the evidence submitted with the timely motion.
