DISCUSSION: The employment-based immigrant visa petItIon was denied by the Director, 
Nebraska Service Center, and is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. 
The appeal will be summarily dismissed. 
The petitioner seeks classification as an employment-based immigrant pursuant to section 
203(b)(1)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.c. § 1153(b)(1)(A), as an 
alien of extraordinary ability in the arts. The director determined that the petitioner had not 
established the requisite extraordinary ability through extensive documentation and sustained 
national or international acclaim. 
On appeal, the petitioner states: "This appeal is being filed for the 1-140 denial referenced 
above." The petitioner does not specifically challenge any of the director's findings or her 
analyses of the evidence submitted for the categories of evidence at 8 c.F.R. § 204.5(h)(3). 
Moreover, the appellate submission was unaccompanied by arguments or evidence addressing 
the categories of evidence at 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(h)(3) which the petitioner claims to meet. 
The petitioner indicated that a brief and/or evidence would be submitted to the AAO within 30 
days. The appeal was filed on February 23, 2010. As of this date, more than fifteen months 
later, the AAO has received nothing further. 
As stated in 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(1)(v), an appeal shall be summarily dismissed if the party 
concerned fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for 
the appeal. 
The petitioner has not specifically addressed the reasons stated for denial and has not provided 
any additional evidence pertaining to the classification sought. The appeal must therefore be 
summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
