MATTER OF G-I- INC Non-Precedent Decision of the Administrative Appeals Office DATE: JAN. 21,2016 APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER DECISION PETITION: FORM I-129, PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER The Petitioner, an information technology services firm, seeks to temporarily employ the Beneficiary as a "computer systems analyst" under the H -1 B nonimmigrant classification. See Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) ยง 101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b), 8 U.S.C. ยง 1101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b). The Director, California Service Center, denied the petition. The matter is now before us on appeal. The appeal will be dismissed. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicate that on July 1, 2015, another employer filed a Form I-129 seeking nonimmigrant H-1B classification on behalf of the Beneficiary. USCIS records further indicate that this petition was approved on August 4, 2015. We sent a letter to the Petitioner requesting verification of its intent to pursue this appeal on November 30, 2015, and have not received a response. Because the Beneficiary of the instant petition has been approved for H-1B employment with another employer, further pursuit of the matter at hand is moot. ORDER: The appeal is dismissed. Cite as Matter ofG-1- Inc, ID# 15480 (AAO Jan. 21, 2016)
