DISCUSSION: The Director, California Service Center, initially approved the nonimrnigrant visa 
petition. The director subsequently issued a notice of intent to revoke and ultimately revoked 
approval of the petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on 
appeal. The appeal will be dismissed. 
The petitioner filed this nonimmigrant petition seeking to the beneficiary as an L-1A nonimmigrant 
intracompany transferee pursuant to section 101(a)(15)(L) of the Immigration and Nationality Act 
(the Act), 8 U.S.C. $ 1101(a)(15)(L). The petitioner, a California corporation, operates a dental 
office. The petitioner claims that it is an affiliate of Centro Dental, located in Tijuana, Mexico. The 
petitioner seeks to employ the beneficiary as its president for a period of one year. 
The nonimmigrant visa petition was approved on April 2, 2004. On September 1, 2004, the director 
issued a notice of intent to revoke the approval. The petitioner submitted rebuttal evidence on 
October 1, 2004. The director revoked the approval of the petition on October 21, 2004, concluding 
that the petitioner had not established that the beneficiary would be employed in the United States in 
a primarily managerial or executive capacity. On appeal, counsel for the petitioner asserts that the 
director's decision to revoke the approval of the petition was in error. 
A review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services records indicates that this beneficiary is also the 
beneficiary of an approved family-based immigrant visa petition. The beneficiary adjusted status to 
that of a U.S. permanent resident as of October 27,2006. While the petitioner has not withdrawn the 
appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that the beneficiary is presently a lawful permanent 
resident and the issues in this proceeding are moot. Therefore, thls appeal is dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
