remanded EB-1A
Visa Petition Case
Unknown Industry · 2024-11-13
This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.
Why This Petition Was Remanded
The AAO determined that the Director's decision to deny the motion to reconsider was flawed because it lacked specific reasons and analysis of the record, violating 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(1)(i). The Director also cited irrelevant factors for denying the motion, leading the AAO to withdraw the decision and remand the case for a new decision.

The Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) decided to remand the matter for the Director to fully consider the record, including new evidence submitted with the appeal, and to issue a new decision.

The combined motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the Petitioner did not provide new facts or establish that the previous dismissal was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. Specifically, the Petitioner sent his appeal brief to the wrong location, violating 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(2) and Form I-290B instructions. The Petitioner's resubmission of previously provided information did not meet the requirements for a motion to reopen.

The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish that the prior summary dismissal was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. Although the Petitioner provided a copy of a supplemental brief, it was incorrectly mailed to Arizona instead of the AAO, and the Petitioner offered no new facts to overcome the grounds for the original dismissal.

The Director denied the petition because the Petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for extraordinary ability by not meeting the initial evidentiary requirements, specifically lacking evidence of a one-time achievement or at least three of the ten alternative criteria. The AAO dismissed the subsequent motions to reopen and reconsider because the Petitioner did not present new facts or demonstrate that the prior summary dismissal was based on an incorrect application of law or policy, and a crucial supplemental brief was misdirected to the wrong service center.
