Decision Summary
The appeal was initially rejected by the AAO because it was not filed in a timely manner. The petitioner then filed a motion to reopen, but the AAO rejected this motion, stating it lacked jurisdiction. Since the AAO had rejected the appeal without rendering a decision, the latest decision in the proceeding was the director's initial denial, and any motion must be filed with that office.
