DISCUSSION: The preference visa petition was denied by the Director. Texas Service Center.
The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal'" ill
be summarily dismissed.
The petitioner is a travel agency that seeks to employ the beneficiary as its General Manager.
Accordingly, the petitioner endeavors to classify the beneficiary as an employment-based
immigrant pursuant to section 203(b)( I )(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act).
8 U.S.C * 1153(b)(I )(C). as a multinational executive or manager.
On October 5. 20 II. the director denied the immigrant petition concluding the following: (I) the
petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's employment abroad was within a qualifying
managerial or executive capacity; (2) the petitioner failed to establish that it would employ the
beneficiary in a managerial or executive capacity; and, (3) the petitioner failed to cstabli.sh that it
had the ability to pay the proffcred wage at the time the priority date was established.
On November 7. 2011. counsel for the petitioner submitted the Form 1-2<)OB, Notice of" Appeal
or Motion, to appeal the director's denial. Counsel marked the box at part two of the Form 1-
2<)OB to indicate that a brief and/or additional evidence will be submitted to the AAO within 30
days. More than 30 days have passed and the record indicates that the petitioner did not rile a
brief or supplemental evidence as of this date. Thus, the AAO deems the record complete as
currentl y constituted and ready for adjudication.
An officer to whom an appeal is taken shall summarily dismiss any appeal when the party
concemcd fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for
the appeal. 8 CF.R. * 103.3(a)(1 )(v).
In regards to the director's conclusion that the petitioner failed to submit sufficient evidence to
show the beneficiary'S eligibility for the immigrant petition. counsel for the petitioner fails to
identify any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact as a basis for the appcal. Further.
the petitioner failed to provide any additional to overcome the director's concerns. Going on
record without supporting documentary evidence is not sufficient for purposes of meeting the
burden of proof in these proceedings. Matter o( S,!/Jici, 22 I&N Dec. 158, 165 (Comlll'r IYYH)
(citing Matter o(TreaslIre Crafi o(Calijc)rnia, 14 I&N Dec. 190 (Reg. COllllll'r 1972)).
As the petitioner has failed to identify an erroneous conclusion of law or statelllcnt of I'act as a
basis for the appeal, the appeal will be summarily dismissed in accordance with 8 C.F.R.
* 103.3(a)(\ )(v).
The burden of proof in these proceedings rests solely with the petitioner. Section 2<) I of the Act.
8 U.S.C ยง 1361. The petitioner has not sustained that burden.
