MEMORANDUM **
Iqbal Singh (“Singh”), a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for asylum, withholding of re *652 moval, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). The BIA adopted and affirmed the IJ’s decision, citing Matter of Burbano, 20 I. & N. Dec. 872, 874 (BIA 1994). We therefore review the IJ’s decision as if it were the decision of the BIA. Abebe v. Gonzales, 432 F.3d 1037, 1040-41 (9th Cir.2005). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s determination that Singh failed to timely file his asylum application because the underlying facts are disputed. See Sillah v. Mukasey, 519 F.3d 1042, 1043-44 (9th Cir.2008).
We have jurisdiction over the denial of Singh’s application for withholding of removal and CAT relief under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 (a). We review the IJ’s adverse credibility determination for substantial evidence. See Rivera v. Mukasey, 508 F.3d 1271, 1274 (9th Cir.2007).
