Decision Summary
The appeal was rejected because it was filed by the beneficiary's attorney, not the petitioner or an attorney representing the petitioner. Under federal regulations, the beneficiary of a visa petition does not have legal standing to file an appeal. Since the attorney who filed the appeal only represented the beneficiary, the appeal was deemed improperly filed and was rejected without consideration of its merits.
