1Per curiam
Petitioner contends that (1) the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) is es-topped from deporting him because of its affirmative misconduct in allegedly forcing his wife, a United States citizen, to withdraw her “immediate relative” visa petition; (2) the Immigration Judge’s rejection of his estoppel defense denied him an opportunity to present evidence as required by 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b); and (3) the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) erred in finding his estoppel claim to be without merit. We deny the petition.
