Decision Summary
The director denied the petition for failure to submit any initial evidence after filing electronically. The AAO found this denial was improper because the petition was for an extension of a previously approved O-1 petition with no changes, and the regulations do not require supporting documents in such cases unless specifically requested. Therefore, the AAO withdrew the director's decision and remanded the case for further action and entry of a new decision on the merits.
