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.

Notable
This decision is purely procedural: it resolves a motion to reconsider a prior AAO summary dismissal that resulted from the Petitioner's appeal brief being mailed to the wrong address (Tempe, AZ) instead of the AAO. No substantive NIW prong analysis (Dhanasar factors) was reached; the AAO confirmed the summary dismissal was procedurally correct because the appeal brief was never properly received.
