MEMORANDUM **

Hassanen Abdulkarim Mohamed, a native and citizen of Somalia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) orders dismissing his appeals from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decisions denying his application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s findings of fact, including adverse credibility findings. Al-Harbi v. INS, 242 F.3d 882, 888 (9th Cir. 2001). We grant the petition for review and remand.

The IJ’s finding that Mohamed used a boiler-plate asylum application is not supported by the record, because Mohamed substantially amended his application and submitted a supplemental declaration. See Paramasamy v. Ashcroft, 295 F.3d 1047, 1052-54 (9th Cir. 2002) (rejecting the agency’s reliance on “perceived inconsistencies not based on the evidence”). In addition, the IJ’s finding that Mohamed’s identity was in doubt because he used fraudulent documents to leave Kenya and enter the United States is not supported because Mohamed’s use of the false documents was consistent with his asylum claim. See Kaur v. Ashcroft, 379 F.3d 876, 889 (9th Cir. 2004). The IJ’s findings that Mohamed was not credible because he provided an “unpalatable” explanation for possessing his mother’s ration card, failed to display sufficient emotion and nervousness while testifying, and was able to recall the precise dates of the attack on his family home and other events are based on improper speculation or conjecture. See Ge v. Ashcroft, 367 F.3d 1121, 1124-25 (9th Cir. 2004). Further, the IJ’s perception that Mohamed should have described the Tunni clan as patrilineal is not a basis for an adverse credibility finding, when Mo *764 hamed described multiple other Tunni clan characteristics consistent with documents in the record. See Li v. Holder, 629 F.3d 1154, 1158 (9th Cir. 2011). Finally, the IJ’s remaining findings impermissibly rely upon minor details that did not go to the heart of Mohamed’s claim. See Garrovillas v. INS, 156 F.3d 1010, 1014 (9th Cir. 1998). Accordingly, substantial evidence does not support the IJ’s adverse credibility determination. See Tekle v. Mukasey, 533 F.3d 1044, 1055-56 (9th Cir. 2008).

We reverse the IJ’s determination that Mohamed filed a frivolous asylum application because it is based on unsupported adverse credibility findings.

Accordingly, we remand for the agency to assess Mohamed’s asylum, withholding of removal, and CAT claims on the merits, deeming his testimony credible. See INS v. Ventura, 537 U.S. 12, 16-18, 123 S.Ct. 353, 154 L.Ed.2d 272 (2002) (per curiam); Soto-Olarte v. Holder, 555 F.3d 1089, 1093-96 (9th Cir. 2009).

PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
