This is an AAO appeal decision — a case denied once and appealed. It shows how the framework is applied; it is not the filing population.

The Petitioner proposed to operate and grow a small business enterprise in the United States, supported by a business plan, licenses, an EIN, customer purchases, and prospective investors.

Notable

This is the Petitioner's fifth combined motion to reopen and reconsider following an earlier summary dismissal of the appeal and four prior dismissed motions (detailed in a footnote recounting each procedural defect). The AAO does not reach the Dhanasar merits at all, holding the motion is limited in scope to the 'latest decision in the proceeding' and that the Petitioner merely reargues facts already considered, without addressing the specific grounds of the fourth motion's dismissal.
