L-1A Dismissed — Business: the initial appeal was rejected as untimely because it was
Decision Summary
The initial appeal was rejected as untimely because it was filed 36 days after the director's decision, exceeding the 33-day limit for mailed decisions. The subsequent motion to reopen this rejection was dismissed because the AAO determined it lacked jurisdiction, as it had not made a substantive decision on the appeal's merits, only a procedural rejection.
