In Re: 19146790 
Appeal of Texas Service Center Decision 
Form 1-129, Petition for L-lA Manager or Executive 
Non-Precedent Decision of the 
Administrative Appeals Office 
Date : DEC . 22, 2021 
The Petitioner , a software company, seeks to continue the Beneficiary's temporary employment as a 
senior product manager under the L-lA nonimmigrant classification for intracompany transferees . 
Immigration and Nationality Act section 10l(a)(l5)(L) , 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(l5)(L) . The L-lA 
classification allows a corporation or other legal entity (including its affiliate or subsidiary) to transfer a 
qualifying foreign employee to the United States to work temporarily in a managerial or executive 
capacity. 
The Director of the Texas Service Center denied the extension petition, concluding that the record did 
not establish, as required, that the Beneficiary's positions abroad and in the United States meet the 
requirements of a managerial or executive capacity. The matter is now before us on appeal. 
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicate that the petitioning employer 
filed another nonimmigrant petition (with receipt numberl I on the Beneficiary's 
behalf. USC IS records further indicate that this second petition was approved on June 9, 2021, thereby 
granting the Beneficiary L-lA status from August 8, 2020, to August 7, 2022 . These are the same 
dates, in the same nonimmigrant status, that the Petitioner had sought in the present proceeding. 
Because the approval of another petition has granted the Beneficiary the same two years of L-lA 
nonimrnigrant status that the Petitioner had sought in this proceeding, further pursuit of the matter at 
hand is moot. 
ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
