Administrative Appeals Office 
DISCUSSION: The Director, California Service Center, denied the application for an extension of 
nonimmigrant status. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The 
appeal will be rejected. 
The applicants filed the application seeking to extend their period of stay as the nonimmigrant spouse and 
child of an intracompany transferee pursuant to section 101(a)(15)(L) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 
8 U.S.C. 5 1101(a)(15)(L). The director notified the principal applicant of the denial of her application for 
extension of stay filed on Form 1-539. 
The principal applicant, through counsel, filed a Form I-290B in an attempt to appeal the decision of the 
director. 
It is noted that 8 C.F.R. 3 214.1(~)(5) states that there is no appeal from the denial of an application for 
extension of stay filed on Form 1-539. Accordingly, the applicants' appeal must be rejected. 
ORDER: The appeal is rejected.
