Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Asif Sohani, a native and citizen of Pakistan, petitions this court to review the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) affirming the Immigration Judge's (IJ) decision denying his application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (CAT). He argues that the Notice to Appear was legally insufficient because it did not contain a hearing date and time, the IJ erred in holding that he had not demonstrated changed circumstances to justify the late filing of his asylum application, and the BIA violated his due process rights by denying an indefinite continuance pending the adjudication of his labor certification application.
Because Sohani did not object to the admission of the Notice to Appear and conceded his removability at the removal hearing, Sohani has waived his challenge to the IJ's jurisdiction over the removal proceedings. See Qureshi v. Gonzales, 442 F.3d 985, 990 (7th Cir.2006). Because the BIA relied on the IJ's determination that the asylum application was untimely, this court lacks jurisdiction to review the denial of asylum. See Castellano-Chacon v. INS, 341 F.3d 533, 544 (6th Cir.2003); Tarrawally v. Ashcroft, 338 F.3d 180, 185-86 (3d Cir.2003). Sohani has not shown that the BIA abused its discretion in denying his request for a continuance pending the adjudication of his labor certification application based on his lack of an approved 1-140 petition for alien worker and his failure to comply with the terms of his previous visa. See Ahmed v. Gonzales, 447 F.3d 433, 436-37 (5th Cir.2006).
The petition for review is DENIED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
