Heading: Remanding for Consideration of Changed Circumstances

Text: In an unusual request, Wang asks in the alternative that we remand her case to the BIA for consideration of two Second Circuit cases that, according to Wang, conclude that parents of foreign-born children are subject to the same rules as parents of native-born children under Chinese family planning policies. [2] The government argues that this request is not properly before us because Wang should have brought before the BIA a motion to reopen pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2. Wang does not explain why she did not file a motion to reopen with the BIA nor does she support her unusual request with any developed argument that we have the authority to consider on appeal changed circumstances that might be the basis for a remand. [3] Thus, we deem this argument for a remand waived. Smilow v. Sw. Bell Mobile Sys., Inc., 323 F.3d 32, 43 (1st Cir.2003)(Issues raised on appeal in a perfunctory manner (or not at all) are waived.).
