MEMORANDUM **
Fransiscus Xaverius Boyke Kewo and his son Brian B. Kewo, natives and citizens of Indonesia, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision affirming an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying their applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”).
We lack jurisdiction to review the discretionary decision that petitioners’ asylum applications were untimely. See Molinar-Estrada v. INS, 293 F.3d 1089, 1093 (9th Cir.2002) (citing 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(3)).
We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252, to review the BIA’s dismissal of petitioners’ remaining claims. Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s findings that petitioners failed to demonstrate that it is more likely than not that they would be subject to persecution if returned to Indonesia, as required to qualify for withholding of removal. See Al-Harbi v. INS, 242 F.3d 882, 888 (9th Cir. 2001). In addition, petitioners are not entitled to CAT relief because they failed to demonstrate that it is more likely than not that they would be tortured if returned to Indonesia. See Malhi v. INS, 336 F.3d 989, 993 (9th Cir.2003).
Petitioners’ contention that their due process rights were violated because the BIA summarily affirmed the IJ’s decision *561is factually inaccurate because the BIA affirmed and adopted the IJ’s decision and added its own reasoning.
Pursuant to Desta v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 741 (9th Cir.2004), petitioners’ motion for stay of removal included a timely request for stay of voluntary departure. Because the stay of removal was granted, the voluntary departure period was also stayed, nunc pro tunc, as of the filing of the motion for stay of removal and this stay will expire upon issuance of the mandate.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part and DENIED in part.
