Procedural posture | AAO_posture: Motion dismissed for invalid filing: the affected party did not sign Form I-290B as required, the representative’s Form G-28 did not cure it, and the motion omitted the statement about judicial proceedings.; citation_pages: 2; 3; classification: Motion dismissed_invalid_signature_and_missing_judicial_proceeding_statement; director_findings: The Texas Service Center denied the petition and AAO dismissed the appeal. In the later motion, the newly submitted Form I-290B was signed only by counsel, who identified herself as the petitioner/affected party on the form; the required Form G-28 did not authorize her to sign on the petitioner’s behalf in that manner. AAO also found the required statement about whether the validity of the unfavorable decision was subject to judicial proceedings absent. Motion dismissed for failure to meet regulatory filing requirements. |
Operative disposition | {'outcome': 'Motion dismissed.', 'basis': 'The Form I-290B was not signed by the affected party or a properly authorized representative as required; it also omitted the required judicial-proceedings statement.', 'citation_pages': [2, 3]} |

How this record may be used in research
Comparison scope: {'fit': 'motion_filing_formalities', 'aggregation_valid': True, 'use': 'Procedural explainer on motion signature/representation and the separate required statement about judicial proceedings; does not adjudicate criteria.', 'do_not_claim': ['Do not characterize a procedural dismissal, rejection, or remand as approval or a completed merits adjudication.', 'Do not infer criterion results beyond those expressly recited.', 'Do not treat an explicitly nonprecedent decision as binding authority.'], 'caveat': 'Use the cited procedural or criterion-specific holding narrowly. No final-merits conclusion unless explicitly stated in the source.'}

How to use this record
This is a historical, nonprecedent AAO decision about its own administrative record. It is not a prediction, success rate, or current filing instruction. Compare the issue and procedural stage before drawing an analogy. The current framework is in the USCIS Policy Manual, Volume 6, Part F, Chapter 2.
