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 is a procedural motion following a summary dismissal of the appeal of an NIW denial.

Notable
Purely procedural motion to reopen a prior summary dismissal; no substantive NIW prong analysis occurred. Petitioner claimed ineffective assistance of prior counsel and requested a chance to re-file with more evidence, which the AAO found insufficient to establish proper cause to reopen.
