We review de novo questions of law, Gil v. Holder, 651 F.3d 1000, 1002 (9th Cir.
2011), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not err in determining that Padilla may not impute his father’s
lawful permanent residence for purposes of meeting the requirements of 8 U.S.C.
§ 1229b(a)(2). See Sawyers v. Holder, 684 F.3d 911 (9th Cir. 2012) (per curiam).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
