DISCUSSION: The Director, Texas Service Center, denied the petition for a nonimmigrant visa. The matter 
is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The AAO will dismiss the appeal. 
The petitioner filed this nonimmigrant visa petition seeking to extend the employment of the beneficiary in 
the position of vice president and general manager as an L-IA nonimmigrant intracompany transferee 
pursuant to section 101(a)(15)(L) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.C. 5 
1101(a)(15)(L). The petitioner is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of New Jersey and is 
allegedly operating a gas station and convenience store in Alabama. The director denied the petition 
concluding that the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary will be employed primarily in an executive 
or managerial capacity. 
The petitioner filed an appeal. The director declined to treat the appeal as a motion and forwarded the appeal 
to the AAO for review. 
A review of Citizenship and Immigration Services records indicates that this beneficiary is also the beneficiary of 
an approved immigrant petition and has adjusted status to that of a permanent resident on June 21,2005. While 
the petitioner has not withdrawn the appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that the beneficiary is presently a 
permanent resident and the issues in this proceeding are moot. Therefore, this appeal is dismissed. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed as moot.
