' Chief, Administrative Appeals Office 
DISCUSSION: The employment-based immigrant visa petition was denied by the Director, Nebraska 
Service Center, and is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal 
will be dismissed. 
The petitioner seeks classification of the beneficiary as an employment-based immigrant pursuant to 
section 203(b)(2) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 5 1153(b)(2), as an alien 
holding an advanced degree. The director determined that the petitioner did not establish that the 
beneficiary holds an advanced degree. 
On Form I-290B counsel stated only that the petitioner is "hereby filing an APPEAL on a DECISION 
of DENIAL on the 1-140 petition." Counsel did not submit any brief or evidence with Form I-290B. 
He further indicated that no supplemental brief and/or additional evidence would be submitted. 
As stated in 8 C.F.R. 5 103.3(a)(l)(v), an appeal shall be summarily dismissed if the party concerned 
fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal. 
Counsel here has not addressed the stated reasons for denial, has not specifically identified any factual 
or legal errors in the director's decision and has not provided any additional evidence. The appeal must 
therefore be summarily dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
