    NON-PRECEDENT DECISION

    DISCUSSION: The Director, Nebraska Service Center, denied the immigrant visa petition and the matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be summarily dismissed.

    The petitioner seeks to classify the beneficiary pursuant to section 203(b )(2) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U .S.C. § 1153(b )(2) as a Member of the Professions Holding an Advanced Degree or an Alien of Exceptional Ability. The director determined that the petitioner failed to demonstrate a continuing ability to pay the proffered wage beginning on the priority date. On appeal, the petitioner asks that the petition be approved as the beneficiary's services are necessary and needed by the petitioner. The petitioner admits that it cannot pay the proffered wage of the beneficiary and relies on contributions from its owner to sustain itself, but believes that with the beneficiary's service the entity will in the future be profitable. The petitioner states, "[the] reason for denial, namely that the company cannot pay the salary determined by the [Department of Labor], in itself is correct." Therefore, the petitioner does not dispute the director 's fmding and stipulates that the director's decision is correct.

    As stated in 8 C.F.R. § 103.3(a)(l)(v), an appeal shall be summarily dismissed if the party concerned fails to identify specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal. In this instance, the petitioner has not, on appeal, identified specifically any erroneous conclusion of law or statement of fact for the appeal

    Counsel here has not specifically addressed the reasons stated for denial, except to agree that petitioner cannot pay the proffered wage without outside assistance, and has not provided any additional evidence in that regard. The appeal must therefore be summarily dismissed.

    ORDER: The appeal is dismissed.
