Non-Precedent Decision of the Administrative Appeals Office MATTER OF C-C-P-C-S- . DATE: JAN. 5, 2016 APPEAL OF VERMONT SERVICE CENTER DECISION PETITION: FORM I-129, PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER The Petitioner, a public charter school, seeks to continue to employ the Beneficiary as a "Physical Education/Fitness Teacher/Coach" under the H-1B 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, Vermont Service Center, denied the petition. The matter is now before us on appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed. On April 24, 2015, the Petitioner submitted a Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, without a brief or evidence. Although the Petitioner indicated on the Form I-290B that the Petitioner would send a brief and/or additional evidence withiri 30 days, we have received neither. Accordingly, the record of proceedings is deemed complete as currently constituted. The regulation at 8 C.P.R. ยง 103.3(a)(1)(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." Upon review, the Petitioner has not specifically identified any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact as a basis for the appeal. The Petitioner's appeal makes no objection to the specific findings set forth by the Director. Consistent with 8 C.P.R. ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v), the appeal will be summarily dismissed. In visa petition proceedings, it is the Petitioner's burden to establish eligibility for the immigration benefit sought. Section 291 of the Act, 8 U.S.C. ยง 1361; Matter ofOtiende, 26 I&N Dec. 127, 128 (BIA 2013). Here, that burden has not been met. ORDER: The appeal is summarily dismissed pursuant to 8 C.P.R.ยง 103.3(a)(l)(v). Cite as Matter ofC-C-P-C-S-, ID# 16046 (AAO Jan. 5, 2016)
