IN RE: 
PETITION: 
Petitioner: 
Beneficiary : 
Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker as a Member of the Professions Holding an Advanced 
Degree or an Alien of Exceptional Ability Pursuant to Section 203(b)(2) of the Immigration 
and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2) 
ON BEHALF OF PETITIONER: 
DISCUSSION: The Director, Nebraska Service Center, denied the immigrant visa petition and the matter is 
now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. On April 25, 2014, the petitioner requested 
that the petition be withdrawn. Title 8 
C.F.R. § 103.2(b)(6), however, indicates that an application or petition 
may not be withdrawn once a decision is issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Notwithstanding 
this provision, even if the grounds of ineligibility in this matter were to be overcome on appeal, this request to 
withdraw the petition now renders it subject to automatic revocation without prior notice. See 8 C.F.R. 
§ 205.1(a)(3)(iii)(C). Therefore, as the request to withdraw the original petition was received before the 
issuance of the AAO's decision in this matter, the issues in this proceeding are now moot, and the appeal will be 
dismissed on this basis. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed as moot.
