MEMORANDUM ***
Larisa Karapetyan, and her son, Vahan Aramyan, natives and citizens of Armenia, *604petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order affirming the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) denial of them application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252.
Where, as here, the BIA affirms without an opinion, we review directly the IJ’s decision. See Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 350 F.3d 845, 849 (9th Cir.2003). We review for substantial evidence, see Li v. Ashcroft, 378 F.3d 959, 962 (9th Cir.2004), and we deny the petition for review.
The IJ offered specific and cogent reasons for his adverse credibility determination based on the implausibility of Karape-tyan’s lack of knowledge of her political party and of her testimony that the Armenian government would have opposed her party, which go to the heart of Kara-petyan’s asylum claim. See Wang v. INS, 352 F.3d 1250, 1257-58 (9th Cir.2003). Accordingly, substantial evidence supports the IJ’s adverse credibility finding. See Li, 378 F.3d at 964 (concluding that, as long as one of the IJ’s adverse credibility findings is supported by substantial evidence and goes to the heart of an asylum claim, we will accept the IJ’s adverse credibility finding).
In the absence of credible evidence, Ka-rapetyan has failed to show eligibility for asylum or withholding. See Farah v. Ashcroft, 348 F.3d 1153, 1156 (9th Cir.2003). Because Karapetyan’s CAT claim is based on the same facts that the IJ found to be not credible, and Karapetyan points to no other evidence that the IJ should have considered, she has failed to establish eligibility for CAT relief. See id. at 1157.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
