Appeal of Vermont Service Center Decision 
Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker (H-lB) 
Non-Precedent Decision of the 
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date : MAR. 12, 2020 
The Petitioner seeks to temporarily employ the Beneficiary under the H-IB nonimrnigrant 
classification for specialty occupations. See Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) section 
101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b), 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b). 
The Director of the Vermont Service Center denied the petition, concluding that the evidence of record 
does not establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. On appeal, the 
Petitioner asserts that the Director erred and the evidence supports an approval of the petition . We 
will dismiss the appeal. 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicate that after the denial of the instant 
petition, the Petitioner filed another petition seeking nonimrnigrant H-lB classification on behalf of 
the Beneficiary. USCIS records further indicate that the other petition was approved. We sent a letter 
to the Petitioner requesting verification of its intent to pursue this appeal, and have not received a 
response. A benefit request may be denied as abandoned , denied based on the record, or denied for 
both reasons if a petitioner does not respond to a request for evidence or a notice of intent to deny by 
the required date. 8 C.F.R. § 103.2(b)(l3)(i). Therefore , the appeal will be dismissed as abandoned 
because the Petitioner did not respond to our request within the time permitted. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed as abandoned pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 103.2(b)(13)(i).
