PER CURIAM:
Chuan Zhi Yu, a native and citizen of the People’s
Republic of China, petitions for review of a decision of the Board
of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) dismissing her appeal from the
immigration judge’s order pretermitting her application for
adjustment of status and ordering her removal from the United
States. We deny her petition for review.
Yu entered the United States on a K-1 nonimmigrant fiancé
visa. She did not marry the sponsor of that visa, and now seeks
adjustment of status under 8 U.S.C. § 1255(i) (2000) based on an
approved labor certification. Relying on its interpretation of 8
U.S.C. § 1255(d) (2000), and our decision in Markovski v. Gonzales,
486 F.3d 108 (4th Cir. 2007), the Board found Yu ineligible for
adjustment of status on any basis other than marriage to the K-1
sponsor within ninety days of entry. We conclude that the Board
correctly applied the cited authority. Therefore, we deny Yu’s
petition for review. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
