MEMORANDUM **
Faqir Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) summary affirmance of the Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) order denying his application for asylum, withholding of removal and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for substantial evidence an adverse credibility finding, Gui v. INS, 280 F.3d 1217, 1225 (9th Cir.2002) , and we deny the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the Id’s adverse credibility determination. It was not unreasonable for the IJ to conclude that Singh lacked credibility because of unexplained inconsistencies between his testimony, his application and his wife’s testimony regarding whether Singh and his wife had a fifth child. See Li v. Ashcroft, 378 F.3d 959, 962 (9th Cir.2004). Our review of the record does not compel a contrary conclusion. See Singh-Kaur v. INS, 183 F.3d 1147, 1152-53 (9th Cir.1999).
Singh’s contention that the BIA’s summary affirmance is a violation of due process is foreclosed by Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 350 F.3d 845, 848 (9th Cir.2003).
