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.
Proposed Endeavor
The Petitioner, a dentist, proposes to launch a dental practice or endeavor. The original business plan indicated she would use her own financial resources to launch the endeavor, though she later submitted a letter of intent from an outside investor.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The motion to reconsider was dismissed because it did not establish that the prior appellate decision was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. The Petitioner's appeal was originally summarily dismissed for failing to address the Director's grounds for denial, and the motion failed to meet the requirements of 8 C.F.R. § 103.5(a)(3).
