DISCUSSION: The approval of the employment-based immigrant visa petition was revoked by 
the Director, Texas Service Center, on March 10, 201l. The director dismissed the petitioner's 
motion to reopen on May 13,2011, 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. ยง 1153(b)(1)(A), as an 
alien of extraordinary ability as a ship modeler. On Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, 
counsel indicated in Part 2 that he was filing an appeal and his "brief and/or additional evidence 
will be submitted to the AAO within 30 days." Moreover, counsel indicated in Part 3 that he 
would "submit supporting documents along with a legal brief within 30 days." Finally, in 
counsel's accompanying cover letter, he "request[ed] 30 days before we can file a legal brief 
along with the supporting documents." Counsel dated the appeal on June 13, 2011. As of this 
date, approximately nine months later, the AAO has received nothing further. Accordingly, the 
record is considered complete as it now stands. 
As stated in 8 C.F.R. ยง 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. Counsel here has not specifically addressed the reasons stated for revocation and has not 
provided any additional evidence. As counsel for the petitioner has failed to provide any specific 
statement or argument regarding the basis of his appeal, the appeal must be summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
