   MEMORANDUM

Carlos Godinez-Gareia, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) dismissing his appeal from an Immigration Judge’s (“U”) denial of his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. ‘We review for substantial evidence the BIA’s decision that an applicant has failed to establish ten years of continuous physical presence in the United States.” Lopez-Alvarado v. Ashcroft, 381 F.3d 847, 851 (9th Cir.2004). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s decision because Godinez-Gareia did not testify consistently with his two applications for cancellation of removal regarding his initial entry to the United States, whether and how frequently he has departed the United States, the places and dates of his employment, and when he started his own business. See Singh-Kaur v. INS, 183 F.3d 1147, 1152-53 (9th Cir.1999). The record also supports the IJ’s determination that Godinez-Garcia’s documentary evidence did not overcome the inconsistencies.

The voluntary departure period was stayed, and that stay will expire upon issuance of the mandate. See Desta v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 741 (9th Cir.2004).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
