NON-PRECEDENT DECISION 
Page 2 
DISCUSSION: The Director, Vermont Service Center, denied the employment-based immigrant visa petition. 
The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be dismissed as 
moot. 
The petitioner is a managed health care provider. It seeks to employ the beneficiary permanently in the 
United States as a technical lead pursuant to section 203(b)(2) of the Immigration and Nationality Act 
(the Act), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2). 
The director denied the petition on January 23, 2001 concluding that the petitioner failed to establish that the 
beneficiary is the holder of an advanced degree, or equivalent, or is of exceptional ability in the sciences, arts, 
or business. The petitioner filed a timely appeal. 
A review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicates that the beneficiary of this 
petition became a United States citizen on Aprill2, 2013. 
While the petitioner has not withdrawn the appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that the beneficiary is 
presently a United States citizen. Accordingly, the AAO finds that the beneficiary's current status as a United 
States citizen deprives this appeal of any practical significance. Considerations of prudence warrant the 
dismissal of the appeal as moot. See Matter of Luis, 22 I&N Dec. 747, 753 (BIA 1999). 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed as moot.
