Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected on procedural grounds because it was filed by the beneficiary's counsel, not the petitioner. Pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(l)(iii)(B), the beneficiary of a visa petition is prohibited from filing an appeal. The AAO therefore did not address the merits of the underlying petition.
