Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because it was filed untimely, 34 days after the director's decision was mailed, which is beyond the 33-day limit for appeals served by mail. The AAO noted that the director had declined to treat the late appeal as a motion to reopen or reconsider, and counsel's assertion of a later mailing date was not supported by evidence.
