S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) 20 Massachusetts Ave. N.W., MS 2090 Washington, DC 20529-2090 u. S. Ci tizenshi p and Immigration Services FILE: PETITION: Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker as a Multinational Executive or Manager Pursuant to Section 203(b)( I )(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U .S.c. ยง lI53(b)( I )(C) ON BEHALF OF PETITIONER: INSTRUCTIONS: Enclosed please find the decision of the Administrative Appeals Office in your case.

The specific requirements for filing such a request can be found at 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.5. All motions must be submitted to the office that originally decided your case by filing a Form 1-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, with a fee of $630. Please be aware that 8 C.F.R. ยง I03.5(a)(I)(i) requires that any motion must be filed within 30 days of the decision that the motion seeks to reconsider or reopen. Thank you, Perry hew Chief, Administrative Appeals Office www.uscis.gov ยท . Page 2 DISCUSSION: The preference visa petition was initially approved by the Director, Vermont Service Center. Upon further review of the record, the Director, Texas Service Center, determined that the petitioner was not eligible for the benefit sought. Accordingly, the director properly served the petitioner with a notice of his intention to revoke the approval of the preference visa petition, and his reasons therefore. The director ultimately revoked the approval of the petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed. The petitioner claimed to be a wholesale; retail, and investment operation seeking 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)(I)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.c. ยง I IS3(b)( I )(C), as a multinational executive or manager. The director revoked the petition based on three grounds of ineligibility. The director determined that I) the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed abroad in a qualifying managerial or executive capacity; 2) the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's proposed position with the U.S. entity would be in a managerial or executive capacity; and 3) the petitioner failed to establish that it continues to do business in the United States. Additionally, as a result of the beneficiary's interview at the New York District Office, the director found the petitioner submitted inconsistent evidence and thus concluded that the evidence was unreliable and insufficient for the purpose of establishing eligibility. On appeal, counsel provides an overview of the procedural events that have taken place since the petitioner filed the Form 1-140 and indicates that a brief and/or additional information would be submitted to the AAO in support of the appeal within 30 days. The AAO notes, however, that the record does not show that any further evidence or information has been provided in support of the appeal since the November 23, 2010 filing. Accordingly, the record will be considered complete as currently constituted. The regulation at 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.3(a)(J)(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. In visa petition proceedings, the burden of proving eligibility for the benefit sought remains entirely with the petitioner. Section 291 of the Act, 8 U.S.C. ยง 1361. 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 must be summarily dismissed. ORDER: The appeal is summarily dismissed.
