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 will be dismissed, as 
the matter is moot. 
On the Form I-129 visa petition, the petitioner describes itself as a 105-employee software and 
development company established in In order to employ the beneficiary in what it 
designates as a programmer analyst position, the petitioner seeks to classify him as a 
nonimmigrant worker 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. § 1101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b). 
The director denied the petition on December 20, 2013. 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicate that the beneficiary 
adjusted his status to that of a lawful permanent resident on September 3, 2014. While the 
petitioner has not withdrawn the appeal, it appears as though the beneficiary is presently a lawful 
permanent resident of the United States and that the issues in this proceeding are therefore moot. 
Accordingly, the appeal will be dismissed. 
ORDER: The matter is dismissed as moot.
