In Re: 10550495 
Appeal of California Service Center Decision 
Form 1-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker (H-lB) 
Non-Precedent Decision of the 
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date : SEPT . 29, 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 
101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b) , 8 U.S.C. § l 101(a)(15)(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 California Service Center Director denied the petition , concluding that the Petitioner did not 
establish that the proffered position is a specialty occupation . On appeal , the Petitioner asserts that 
the Director erred and the Petitioner bas established eligibility for this benefit. The matter is now 
before us on appeal. We will dismiss the appeal as moot. 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services records indicate that the Petitioner filed a subsequent Form 
1-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker , seeking nonimmigrant H-lB classification on behalf of 
the Beneficiary and that the petition was approved . 
Because the Beneficiary of the instant petition has been approved for H-lB employment with 
Petitioner , further pursuit of the matter at hand would be moot. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
