PER CURIAM:
Nitinkumar Ramanbhai Patel, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of
an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal from the
Immigration Judge’s discretionary denial of his request for a waiver under 8 U.S.C. §
1227(a)(1)(H) (2012). We have thoroughly reviewed the record and Patel’s claims and
conclude that they are without merit. Patel failed to show a due process violation that
prejudiced the outcome of his case, see Anim v. Mukasey, 535 F.3d 243, 256 (4th Cir.
2008), because the record reflects that the Board conducted an independent de novo
review of the Immigration Judge’s decision and reached the same conclusion.
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board.
See In re Patel (B.I.A. Aug. 27, 2018). We dispense with oral argument because the facts
and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
