DISCUSSION: The Director, Nebraska 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 information technology analyst as an L-lB nonimmigrant intracompany transferee having
specialized knowledge pursuant to section 101(a)(15)(L) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8
U.S.C. § 1101(a)(15)(L). The director denied the petition concluding that the petitioner did not establish that
the beneficiary has specialized knowledge.
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 September 9, 2004
(MSC 04 035 13001). While the petitioner has not withdrawn the appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that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.
