New 9th Circuit and BIA Immigration Cases

Diaz Aparacio v. Holder

Posted in Unpublished Ninth Circuit by newimmigrationcases on March 3, 2010

**One year bar; nexus**

Petitioner’s asylum application is time-barred because he failed to submit the application within one year of entry and  his reason for delay-his inability to obtain documents from El Salvador- does not constitute extraordinary circumstances.   He also did not establish a nexus between his fear of military or guerilla recruitment and a protected ground.
