   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-3523
   Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Murphy and Hansen, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - immigration. Alien who marks the "citizen or national of the United States" box on Form 1-9 for the purpose of falsely representing himself as a citizen to secure employment with a private employer has falsely represented himself for the benefit or purpose of the Act. Employment, private or otherwise, is an example of purpose or benefit contemplated by the statute. Substantial evidence supported that alien falsely represented himself as a citizen and did not prove clearly and beyond doubt that the is admissible. Thus, alien is ineligible for adjustment of status.
