Do not file a motion directly with the AAO .. Thank you, ~6~ Chief, Administrative Appeals Office www.uscis.gov (b)(6) NON-PRECEDENT DECISION Page 2 DISCUSSION: The Director, Texas Service Center, denied the immigrant visa petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed . The petitioner is a Texas corporation that seeks to employ the beneficiary as its president. Accordingly, the petitioner endeavors to classify the beneficiary as an employment-based immigrant pursuant to section 203(b)(1)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. ยง 1153(b)(1)(C), as a multinational executive or manager. The director denied the petition, concluding that the petitioner failed to meet eligibility criteria that requires the petitioner to establish the following elements: (1) the beneficiary was employed abroad in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity; (2) the beneficiary would be employed in the United States in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity; (3) the petitioner had been doing business for one full year prior to filing the instant petition; (4) the petitioner had the ability to pay the beneficiary's proffered wage as of the date the petition was filed; and (5) the beneficiary's former foreign employer continues to do business. Although counsel submitted a properly executed Form I-290B Notice of Appeal indicating that the director's decision was being appealed, she did not dispute or address any of the director's numerous adverse findings. Rather, she indicated that a brief and/or additional information would be submitted within 30 days in support of the appeal. The record reflects that the petitioner did not file a brief or supplemental evidence within the allowed timeframe . Accordingly, the record will be considered complete as currently constituted. The regulation at 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v) states, in pertinent part: An officer to whom an appeal is taken shall summarily dismis s any appeal when the party concerned fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal. In visa petition proceedings, it is the petitioner's burden to establish eligibility for the immigration benefit sought. Section 291 of the Act, 8 U.S.C. ยง 1361; Matter of Otiende, 26 I&N Dec. 127, 128 (BIA 2013) . Inasmuch as the petitioner has failed to identify specifically an erroneous conclusion of law or a statement of fact in this proceeding, the petitioner has not sustained that burden. Therefore, the appeal will be summarily dismissed . ORDER: The appeal is summarily dismissed.
