APPEAL OF NEBRASKA SERVICE CENTER DECISION 
PETITION: FORM 1-140, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER 
The Petitioner seeks classification as an individual of extraordinary ability in athletics. See 
Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) section 203(b )(I )(A), 8 U.S.C. 
§ ll53(b)(I)(A). This tirst preference classification makes immigrant visas available to those who 
can demonstrate their extraordinary ability through sustained national or international ·acclaim and 
whose achievements have been recognized in their tield through extensive documentation. 
The Director of the Nebraska Service Center denied the petition. The matter is now before us on 
appeal. Upon review, we will summarily dismiss the appeal. 
An officer to whom an appeal is taken shall summarily dismiss any appeal when the party concerned 
fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal. 
8 C.F.R. § l03.3(a)(l)(v). 
On appeal, the Petitioner did not provide a statement in support of the appeal that specifically 
identifies an erroneous conclusion of law or fact in the decision. On the Form l-290B, Notice of 
Appeal or Motion, the Petitioner stated that a brief or additional evidence is attached to the appeal. 
However, the Petitioner submitted documentary evidence without the required statement in support 
of the appeal. Because the Petitioner has not identified any specific, erroneous conclusion of law or 
statement of tact in the Director's decision below, the appeal must be summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is summarily dismissed pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(l)(v).
