PER CURIAM:

       Shiva Malla, a native and citizen of Nepal, petitions for review of an order of the

Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal from the immigration judge’s

denial of Malla’s requests for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the

Convention Against Torture (CAT).

       On appeal, Malla challenges the agency’s determination that he failed to establish

changed circumstances to excuse the untimely filing of his asylum application. See 8

U.S.C. § 1158(a)(2)(B), (D) (2012). We lack jurisdiction to review this determination

pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(3) (2012), and find that Malla has failed to raise a colorable

question of law or constitutional claim that would fall under the exception set forth in 8

U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D) (2012). See Mulyani v. Holder, 

, 196-97 (4th Cir.

2014); Gomis v. Holder, 

, 358-59 (4th Cir. 2009). Given this jurisdictional

bar, we cannot review the underlying merits of Malla’s asylum claims. Accordingly, we

dismiss this portion of the petition for review.

       Concerning Malla’s challenges to the denial of withholding of removal and

protection under the CAT, we have thoroughly reviewed the record, including the transcript

of Malla’s merits hearings and all supporting evidence. We conclude that the record

evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to any of the agency’s factual findings, see 8

U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision,

see 

; Dankam v. Gonzales, 

, 124 (4th Cir. 2007).

Accordingly, we deny this portion of the petition for review for the reasons stated by the

Board. In re Malla, (B.I.A. Nov. 16, 2018).

                                              2
      We therefore dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review. We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                       PETITION DISMISSED IN PART,
                                                                   DENIED IN PART
