Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because it was improperly filed by a representative not entitled to do so. The representative was a Canadian lawyer, and regulations at 8 C.F.R. § 292.1(a)(6) prohibit foreign attorneys from representing persons on matters within the geographical confines of the United States. Consequently, the AAO rejected the appeal without reaching the merits of the underlying issue of whether the proffered position qualified as a specialty occupation.
