How this record may be used in research
Comparison scope: {‘fit’: ‘Appeal rejected as untimely’, ‘aggregation_valid’: True, ‘use’: ‘Procedural aggregation only with late appeal rejections; preserve the different service, receipt, filing-fee, revocation, and motion-conversion circumstances. Do not blend revocation appeal deadlines with ordinary denial appeals without explaining the difference.’, ‘do_not_claim’: [‘Do not characterize a procedural rejection, dismissal, or remand as completed merits adjudication.’, ‘Do not infer individual criterion findings from aggregate threshold statements.’, ‘Do not treat remand as approval.’, ‘Do not treat a nonprecedent decision as binding authority.’], ‘caveat’: ‘The AAO decided timeliness, not the underlying EB-1A criteria or final merits.’}

How to use this record
