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 record does not specify the endeavor beyond identifying the petitioner as a business administrator seeking an NIW; this decision addresses only a procedural motion to reconsider.

Notable

What this case teaches
Analyst reading of the decision text.
Petitioner merely repeated prior arguments and generally alleged error without identifying specific legal or factual mistakes in the prior decision, failing the motion-to-reconsider standard.
A motion to reconsider must pinpoint specific legal/factual errors in the prior decision; general reassertion of the same brief will be summarily dismissed.
