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 decision does not describe the underlying endeavor; it addresses only a combined motion to reopen and reconsider a prior appellate dismissal.

Notable
This decision addresses only procedural sufficiency of a combined motion to reopen/reconsider; the AAO never reaches the substantive NIW prongs. The Petitioner also raised an irrelevant Fourth Amendment claim, which the AAO rejected as unrelated to the grounds of the prior unfavorable decision.
