Decision Summary

The appeal was rejected because it was untimely filed, submitted 76 days after the director issued the adverse decision, far exceeding the 33-day deadline. The AAO noted the untimely appeal did not meet the requirements to be treated as a motion to reopen or reconsider, and therefore, it must be rejected.
