Chief, Administrative Appeals Office www.uscis.gov (b)(6) NON-PRECEDENT DECISION Page 2 DISCUSSION: The Director, California Service Center, denied the nonimmigrant visa petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office on appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed. On the Form 1-129 visa petition, the petitioner describes itself as a ten-employee information technology services company established in In order to employ the beneficiary in what it designates as a "Software Test Engineer" position at a salary of $63,000 per year, the petitioner seeks to amend her nonimmigrant worker classification in a specialty occupation pursuant to section 101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. ยง 1101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b). The petitioner submitted the Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, and marked box "b" in "Part 3. Information About the Appeal or Motion" to indicate that a brief and/or additional evidence would be sent to our office within 30 days. The petitioner also submitted a copy of the director's denial decision. We fully and in-detail reviewed the Form I-290B and the accompanying documents. Notably, we did not receive a brief and/or additional evidence within the allotted timeframe (or thereafter). Accordingly, the record of proceeding is deemed complete as currently constituted. We note that the petitioner did not identify any specific error by the director. An offer to provide further information in the future is an insufficient basis for an appeal.1 The regulation at 8 C.P.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v) states, in pertinent part: "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." In the instant case, the petitioner has not specifically identified any erroneous conclusion of law or a statement of fact as a basis for the appeal and thus, the appeal is summarily dismissed in accordance with 8 C.F.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v)? ORDER: The appeal is summarily dismissed. 1 The petitioner must establish eligibility at the time of filing the nonimmigrant visa petition. 8 C.P.R. ยง 103.2(b)(l). 2 As the appeal will be summarily dismissed, we will not discuss any additional deficienc ies we observe in the record of proceeding.
