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 summarily 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. 5 1153(b)(l)(A), as an alien 
of extraordinary ability. 
The director denied the petition on November 6, 2008, finding that the petitioner failed to 
demonstrate receipt of a major, internationally recognized award, or that he meets at least three of 
the regulatory criteria at 8 C.F.R. $ 204.5(h)(3). 
The petitioner, through counsel, submits a timely appeal and provides the following reason as his 
reason for the appeal: 
Both this office and the client are not agree with your decision regarding the 
above-mentioned 1-140 petition on November 6, 2008. This office is therefore 
representing the above client to file the appeal. The brief will be provided within 
30 days of November 6,2008. 
Counsel did not elaborate on his argument, cite to specific errors on the part of the director or 
describe any evidence the director allegedly failed to analyze. Further, despite counsel's assertion 
that he would submit a brief to the AAO within 30 days, to date, no submission has been received. 
Accordingly, the record is considered to be complete as it now stands. 
The regulation at 8 C.F.R. $ 103.3(a)(l)(v) states, in pertinent part: 
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. 
The petitioner's general statement regarding the director's decision is not sufficient to meet the 
requirements for filing a substantive appeal. Therefore, as the petitioner has failed to specifically 
identify an erroneous conclusion of law or a statement of fact in this proceeding, the appeal must be 
summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed. 
I 
 It is noted that the petitioner's brief and/or additional evidence to accompany his appeal was due 30 days from his 
submission of the appeal, not 30 days from the date of the decision as his counsel noted in the appeal statement.
