MEMORANDUM **

Harvinder Kaur, native and citizen of India, petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . Reviewing for abuse of discretion, Lara-Torres v. Ashcroft, 388 F.3d 968 , 972 (9th Cir.2004), we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Kaur’s motion to reopen as untimely where the motion was filed 30 months after the BIA’s final decision, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2), and Kaur failed to present sufficient evidence of changed circumstances in India to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time limit, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(3)(ii); He v. Gonzales, 501 F.3d 1128, 1133 (9th Cir.2007); Toufi-ghi v. Mukasey, 510 F.3d 1059, 1066-67 (9th Cir.2007) (underlying adverse credibility determination rendered evidence of changed circumstances immaterial).

Furthermore, we decline to reconsider Kaur’s challenge to the immigration judge’s adverse credibility determination because her contentions have already been considered and rejected by this court. See Kaur v. Gonzales, 146 Fed.Appx. 925 (9th Cir.2005); see also Merritt v.…
