IN RE: 
PETITION: Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker Pursuant to Section 10 1 (a)(l 5)(H)(i)(b) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. 5 1 10 1 (a)(lS)(H)(i)(b) 
ON BEHALF OF PETITIONER:

the office that originally decided your case. Any further inquiry must be made to that office.

DISCUSSION: The service center director denied the nonimmigrant visa petition and the matter is now before 
the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal shall be summarily dismissed. 
The petitioner is a health care professional recruitment and staffing business that seeks to employ the 
beneficiary as a mental health activities director. The petitioner endeavors to classify the beneficiary as a 
nonimmigrant worker in a specialty occupation pursuant to 5 1 0 1 (a)(l 5)(H)(i)(b) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 5 1 lOl(a)(lS)(H)(i)(b). The director denied the petition because the 
proffered position is not a specialty occupation and the petitioner has not complied with the terms of the labor 
condition application. 
On appeal, counsel submitted a statement and indicated that a brief and/or additional evidence would be 
submitted to the AAO within 30 days. As of this date, however, the AAO has not received any additional 
evidence into the record. Therefore, the record is complete. 
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. 8 C.F.R. 
5 103.3(a)(l)(v). 
On the Form I-290B, counsel expresses disagreement with the director's decision but fails to specify how the 
director made any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact in denying the petition. As the petitioner does 
not present additional evidence on appeal to overcome the decision of the director, the appeal will be summarily 
dismissed in accordance with 8 C.F.R. 5 103.3(a)(l)(v). 
The burden of proof in this proceeding rests solely with the petitioner. Section 291 of the Act, 8 U.S.C. 5 1361. 
The petitioner has not sustained that burden. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
