Gerardo Valdovinos-Infante v. Michael Mukasey
Gerardo Valdovinos-Infante v. Michael Mukasey
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Gerardo Valdovinos-Infante, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board- of Immigration Appeals’ order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for a waiver- under 8 U.S.C. § 1186a(cj(4)(B). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the IJ’s order denying *690 the waiver, Damon v. Ashcroft, 360 F.3d 1084, 1088 (9th Cir. 2004), and we deny the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s conclusion that Valdovinos-Infante failed to satisfy his burden of establishing that his marriage was entered into in good faith where he did not submit sufficient documentation indicating that he and his wife intended to establish a life together at the time of their marriage. See Oropeza-Wong v. Gonzales, 406 F.3d 1135, 1148 (9th Cir. 2005).
We decline to consider the evidence Val-dovinos-Infante attached to his opening brief because our review is limited to the administrative record underlying the IJ’s decision. See Fisher v. INS, 79 F.3d 955, 963 (9th Cir. 1996) (en banc):
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
