Acting Chief, Administrative Appeals Office 
DISCUSSION: The Director, Vermont Service Center, denied the employment-based immigrant visa 
petition, which is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be 
dismissed as moot. 
The petitioner seeks classification as an "alien of extraordinary ability" in business, pursuant to section 
203(b)(l)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 5 1153(b)(l)(A). The director 
determined the petitioner had not established the sustained national or international acclaim necessary 
to qualifL for classification as an alien of extraordinary ability. 
Review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicates that, subsequent to 
filing the instant petition, the beneficiary filed another Form 1-140 petition under the same 
classification, with receipt number EAC-06-017-50422. USCIS records further indicate that the second 
petition was approved on August 4, 2006. The alien concurrently filed a Form 1-485 Application to 
Adjust Status, receipt number EAC-06-017-50432, which was approved on August 14, 2006. Because 
the alien has adjusted to lawful permanent resident status, further pursuit of the matter at hand is moot. 
ORDER: 
 The appeal is dismissed as moot, based on the alien's adjustment to lawfid permanent 
resident status.
