DISCUSSION: The employment-based immigrant visa petition was denied by the Director, Texas 
Service Center, and is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal 
will be dismissed. 
The petitioner seeks classification as an employment-based immigrant pursuant to section 
203(b)(l)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.c. § 11S3(b)(l)(A), as an 
alien of extraordinary ability in the sciences. The director determined that the petitioner had not 
established the requisite extraordinary ability through extensive documentation and sustained 
national or international acclaim. 
Review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' records indicates that the petitioner was 
granted lawful permanent residence on November 13, 2009. Therefore, further pursuit of the 
matter at hand is moot. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed based on the alien's lawful permanent resident status in 
the United States.
