PER CURIAM: USCA11 Case: 21-13220 Document: 27-1 Date Filed: 03/21/2023 Page: 3 of 14 21-13220 Opinion of the Court 3 Youssef Afilal El Alami, a native and citizen of Morocco, pe- titions for review of orders of the Board of Immigration Appeals affirming the denial of a discretionary waiver of inadmissibility, 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(1)(H), and denying motions to remand and for re- consideration. We dismiss in part and deny in part El Alami’s peti- tions for review. In October 1996, El Alami entered the United States as a vis- itor. Three months later, El Alami married a citizen, Vickie Rob- erts, and divorced her one month later. In March 1997, El Alami married another citizen, Lillie Vazquez, who petitioned for El Alami to receive an immigrant visa as her spouse while El Alami filed for adjustment of status. During interviews with officials in October and November 1997 and March 1998, El Alami repre- sented that he had no children, and in 1998, his application for ad- justment of status and his visa petition were approved.

When immigration officials asked El Alami why he had not disclosed his children in his first applica- tion, he explained that he thought the question pertained to his USCA11 Case: 21-13220 Document: 27-1 Date Filed: 03/21/2023 Page: 4 of 14 4 Opinion of the Court 21-13220 marriage with Vazquez. In 2006, El Alami’s second application was denied because of his repeated false representations to immigration officials that he had no children and his lack of good moral charac- ter. In 2012, El Alami filed a third application for naturalization, which listed his children. In September 2016, the Department of Homeland Security denied El Alami’s third application and issued a notice to appear …
