Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner filed for an H-1B extension after the beneficiary's status had expired, which is not generally permissible. The petitioner failed to demonstrate that the late filing was due to extraordinary circumstances beyond their control, and provided inconsistent and unpersuasive explanations for the delay, thereby failing to meet their burden of proof.
