Before: ALARCÓN, LEAVY, and GRABER, Circuit Judges.

petitioner is removable, Nakamoto v. Ashcroft, 363 F.3d 874, 881-82 (9th Cir.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s conclusion that Wang entered her
marriage for the purpose of procuring an immigration benefit where Wang’s
citizen-spouse testified that their marriage was never consummated and where
Wang and her citizen-spouse never lived together in the United States. See id. at

the time of marriage).
Wang’s remaining contentions are unavailing.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
