Form 1-129, Petition for L-lA Manager or Executive 
Non-Precedent Decision of the 
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date : WL. 19, 2021 
The Petitioner, describing itself as a company specializing in the.__ ___________ ____. 
seeks to temporarily employ the Beneficiary as "Senior Manager Manufacturing /Field Service" in the 
United States under the L-lA nonirnmigrant classification for intracompany transferees. See 
Immigration and Nationality Act section 10l(a)(l 5)(L), 8 U.S.C. ยง 110l(a)(15)(L). 
The Director of the California Service Center denied the petition, concluding the record did not 
establish that the Beneficiary would be employed in a managerial or executive capacity. The matter 
is now before us on appeal. 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicate that a Form 1-140, Immigrant 
Petition for an Alien Worker filed on behalf of the Beneficiary was filed and approved before the 
instant appeal. USCIS records further show that a Form 1-485, Application to Register Permanent 
Residence or Adjust Status was approved subsequent to the filing of this appeal and that the 
Beneficiary was issued a Permanent Resident Card on April 20, 2021 . As the Beneficiary is presently 
a permanent resident, further pursuit of this matter is moot. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
