DISCUSSION: The Acting Director (Director), Vermont Service Center, denied the immigrant visa petition. 
The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be withdrawn. 
The petitioner seeks to classify the beneficiary pursuant to section 203(b)(3) of the Immigration and Nationality 
Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. tj 1153(b)(3) as a skilled worker. On February 9, 2005, the director determined that the 
petitioner failed to establish its ability to pay the proffered wage and denied the petition accordingly. 
On March 10,2005, counsel filed a timely appeal on behalf of the petitioner. Subsequently, on May 2, 2005, the 
petitioner sent a letter to the Service Center to advise that the beneficiary was no longer employed by the 
petitioner, and therefore, the petitioner is "no longer in a position to sponsor his request for citizenship." 
As the petitioner is no longer sponsoring the beneficiary, the appeal will be deemed to be withdrawn. 
 The 
withdrawal may not be retracted. 8 C.F.R. 6 103.2(b)(6). 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed based on its withdrawal by the petitioner.
