On Petition for Review of an Order of the

Board of Immigration Appeals

Argued and Submitted January 24, 2020

Pasadena, California

Before: CLIFTON and LEE, Circuit Judges, and BLOCK,

** District Judge.

Ghullam Reza Khavari, a native and citizen of Afghanistan, petitions for 

review of the Board of Immigration Appeal’s decision affirming the denial of his

asylum and withholding of removal applications. We have jurisdiction under 8 

U.S.C. § 1252, and we deny the petition.

1. We review the denial of asylum for substantial evidence. See Silva-

U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

Pereira v. Lynch, 827 F.3d 1176, 1184 (9th Cir. 2016). We must affirm the BIA’s

decision unless “the evidence not only supports a contrary conclusion, 

but compels it.” Id. (quoting Huang v. Holder, 744 F.3d 1149, 1152 (9th Cir. 2014)). 

2. Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s decision to affirm the 

Immigration Judge’s adverse credibility determination. Khavari was non-responsive 

and inconsistent when testifying about his wife and her family’s attempts to receive 

documentation. Khavari also gave inconsistent testimony about the threat he 

received in Venezuela (e.g., specifically whether he was paid and whether he knew 

the name of the person who threatened him). The record does not “compel” a finding 

that Khavari is eligible for relief. See Silva-Pereira, 827 F.3d at 1184.

3. Khavari also challenges the alternate country designations of Iran, 

Venezuela, and Canada for his removal. But Khavari designated Canada as an 

alternate country, and he did not object before the Immigration Judge to the 

Department of Homeland Security’s designations of Iran and Venezuela. Therefore, 

Khavari waived his challenge to the alternative country designations.

DENIED.

semiannual Headcount for the March 2024 reporting period no later than March 31, 

2024. 

The semiannual Headcount reporting (March and September) provides the OPM with a 

snapshot of agency-wide enrollment for participants in the Civil Service Retirement 

System (CSRS), Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS), Federal Employees 

Retirement System – Revised Annuity Employees (FERS-RAE), Federal Employees 

Retirement System – Further Revised Annuity Employees (FERS-FRAE), Federal 

Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program, and/or the Federal Employees’ Group Life 

Insurance (FEGLI) Program.

The March 2024 Headcount reporting period is for payroll paid during the first 15 days 

of March for weekly and bi-weekly pay cycles. For monthly pay cycles, the reporting

period is February 1 through February 29, 2024. 

Headcount reports must be submitted no later than March 31, 2024. If report

submission delays or difficulties are anticipated, please call Yadira Vega at

All Payroll providers must use the OPM Headcount Collection System (HCS) to input 

data and submit OPM Forms 1523 and 2812A electronically. The HCS also provides an 

electronic upload feature using a standardized template. Note: Beginning with the 

March 2024 reporting period, payroll users must use their Personal Identity 

Verification (PIV) card to sign in and access the Headcount web system. If a user does 

not have a PIV card, he/she must obtain a FIDO2 Token at Authenticator Level 2 before 

March 1, 2024. Each user must have his/her own FIDO2 Token, which is tied to a 

specific user’s email address. Note: Standard Retirement and Insurance Transfer

System (RITS) reports should not be delayed because Headcount submissions are not 

ready/complete. 

For questions regarding the data collection process, the new login process, or any 

information in this Benefit Administration Letter, please contact the Headcount 

Support Team via telephone at (202) 606-4842, or via, email at

USA Hire

Transforming Government One Hire at a Time

SUCCESS STORIES

CUSTOM MISSION-CRITICAL ASSESSMENT

Agency: U.S. Customs and Border Protection

The Challenge:

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) was seeking a testing partner to transition their agencydeveloped, high stakes, paper-based testing process to an online proctored process for two of

their mission-critical law enforcement occupations: Customs and Border Protection Officer

(CBPO) GS-1895 and Border Patrol Agent (BPA) GS-1896.

The Solution: 

OPM was well positioned to provide the needed support, given the long-standing work 

relationship with CBP. OPM met with CBP to determine their requirements to successfully 

transition this work to the USA Hire online platform, which was implemented in May 2014. 

During any fiscal year, CBP may post 40-50 job opportunity announcements (JOAs) testing 

cycles for these two positions. The hiring process for these occupations includes completing an 

unproctored candidate experience record on the USA Hire platform. Once complete, applicants 

then proceed to schedule a USA Hire proctored test session at one of the hundreds of testing 

centers available worldwide to complete additional assessments. Applicants who pass these

assessments then receive a score in USA Staffing. CBP HR then conducts a qualifications review 

for minimum qualifications and conditions of employment. Eligible applicants may then 

continue in the hiring process by undergoing a physical fitness test, medical exam, polygraph 

test, and background investigation.

The Success:

Applicants may now select any testing center within their local commuting area and may 

reschedule as needed rather than being forced to travel long distances to one of 30 or so 

predetermined testing facilities as was the case during the paper-based testing process. CBP 

experienced a reduced processing timeline for open periods from 16 weeks to 11 weeks (time 

from the start of the open period to the end of the testing and data transfer process). CBP also 

experienced increased applicant show rates (CBPO increased from 52% to 64% in FY16; BPA 

increased from 53% to 58% in FY16). CBP and OPM hold weekly project status meetings to 

ensure open communication and continued forward movement. By using USA Staffing, CBP has 

access to real-time data reporting. In FY16, CBP made 1,404 selections (CBPO + BPA).
