DISCUSSION: The employment-based immigrant visa petition was denied by the Director, Vermont Service 
Center, and is now before the Administrative Appeals Office on appeal. The appeal will be dismissed. 
The petitioner seeks classification as an "alien of extraordinary ability" in the arts as a Chinese instrument 
performer, pursuant to section 203(b)(l)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 
9 1153(b)(l)(A). The director determined the petitioner had not established the sustained national or international 
acclaim necessary to qualify for classification as an alien of extraordinary ability. In reaching that determination, 
the director identified specific evidentiary deficiencies in the record. 
On appeal, the petitioner resubmits the same evidence submitted initially, including a copy of her passport 
identifying her occupation as "journalist." 
As stated in 8 C.F.R. 8 103.3(a)(l)(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 here has not specifically addressed the reasons stated for denial and has not provided any new 
evidence. The appeal must therefore be summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
