In Re: 7752100 
Appeal of California Service Center Decision 
Form 1-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker (H-lB) 
Non-Precedent Decision of the 
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date : WL Y 20, 2020 
The Petitioner seeks to temporarily employ the Beneficiary under the H-lB nonimmigrant 
classification for specialty occupations. See Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) section 
10l(a)(l5)(H)(i)(b), 8 U.S.C. ยง 110l(a)(l5)(H)(i)(b) . The H-lB program allows a U.S . employer to 
temporarily employ a qualified foreign worker in a position that requires both: (a) the theoretical and 
practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge; and (b) the attainment of a bachelor's 
or higher degree in the specific specialty ( or its equivalent) as a minimum prerequisite for entry into 
the position. 
The Director of the California Service Center denied the petition, concluding that the evidence of 
record did not establish eligibility for the immigration benefit sought. On appeal, the Petitioner asserts 
that the Director erred in denying the petition . 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services records indicate that another Petitioner filed a Form 1-129, 
Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker, seeking H-lB classification on behalf of the Beneficiary and 
that the petition was subsequently approved . Because the Beneficiary has been approved for H-lB 
employment with the Petitioner, further pursuit of the matter at hand is moot. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
