DISCUSSION: The Director, Nebraska Service Center, denied the employment-based 
immigrant petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on 
appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed. 
The petitioner is a corporation organized in the State of Florida in July 2004. It claims to be 
engaged in the building trade, and it seeks to employ the beneficiary as its presidentlgeneral 
manager. Accordingly, the petitioner endeavors to classify the beneficiary as an 
employment-based immigrant pursuant to section 203(b)(l)(C) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 4 1153(b)(l)(C), as a multinational executive or manager. 
The record of proceeding before the AAO contains: (1) the Form 1-140 and supporting 
documentation; (2) the director's request for additional evidence; (3) the petitioner's response to 
the director's request; (4) the director's denial letter; and (5) the Form I-290B. The AAO 
reviewed the record in its entirety before issuing its decision. 
The director denied the petition on February 2, 2009, determining that the petitioner had not 
established: (1) that the petitioner had the ability to pay the beneficiary the proffered annual 
wage of $39,000; and, (2) that the beneficiary was employed in a managerial or executive 
capacity with a qualifying foreign entity for at least one year in the three years preceding the 
filing of the petition 
The petitioner submitted the Form I-290B on March 2, 2009. The petitioner marked the box at 
section two of the Form I-290B to indicate that a brief and/or evidence would be sent within 30 
days. On April 2, 2009, the AAO received a letter from the claimed representative of the 
petitioner requesting an extension of 60 days in order to submit the appeal documents. This 
request will be denied since the request was made by an unauthorized representative.' Thus, the 
AAO deems the record complete as currently constituted. 
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. 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v). 
The only new document submitted on appeal is the Form I-290B, which states the following, 
verbatim: 
1 
 Only the classes of persons identified at 8 C.F.R. 5 292.1 may represent a petitioner before the United 
States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). See 8 C.F.R. 5 1.1Cj). On the Form G-28, the 
petitioner's claimed representative indicated that he is a "Certified Canadian Immigration Consultant," 
which is not an authorized representative pursuant to 8 C.F.R. 5 292.1. The Form G-28 therefore does not 
identify any provision of 8 C.F.R. 9 292.1 under which the representative is entitled to represent the 
petitioner before USCIS.

The adjudicator erred in concluding that the applicant had not met the burden of 
proof as per the Matter of Treasure Craft of California 14 I & N Dec. 190. The brief 
to follow will detail the reasons why the application did meet the requirements. 
The petitioner fails to specifically identify any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact 
for the appeal. As no additional evidence is presented on appeal to overcome the decision of the 
director, the appeal will be summarily dismissed in accordance with 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v). 
The petitioner suggests that the director's adjudication of the petition was erroneous; however, 
the petitioner has not demonstrated or specified any error by the director in conducting its review 
of the petition. See Vides- Vides v. INS, 783 F.2d 1463, 1469-70 (9th Cir. 1986); Nicholas v. INS, 
590 F.2d 802, 809-10 (9th Cir. 1979); Martin-Mendoza v. INS, 499 F.2d 918, 922 (9th Cir. 
1974), cert. denied, 41 9 U.S. 1 1 13 (1 975). 
The burden of proof in these proceedings rests solely with the petitioner. Section 291 of the Act, 
8 U.S.C. 4 1361. The petitioner has not sustained that burden. 
ORDER: 
 The appeal is summarily dismissed. The petition is denied.
