MEMORANDUM **

Pierre Genevier appeals pro se from the district court’s summary judgment in his action against the Commissioner of Social Security alleging improper denial of his application for Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court’s order affirming the Commissioner’s decision. Ukolov v. Barnhart, 420 F.3d 1002, 1004 (9th Cir.2005). We affirm.

The district court properly granted summary judgment because substantial evidence supported the Commissioner’s determination that Genevier did not establish that he was a “qualified alien” eligible to receive SSI. 8 U.S.C. §§ 1611(a), 1641(b) (an alien who is not a “qualified alien” is generally not eligible for any federal public benefit); see also 20 C.F.R. § 416.1618(a), (d) (an alien may be eligible for SSI benefits if permanently residing in the United States with the knowledge and permission of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, which the Commissioner must verify).

Genevier’s remaining contentions are unpersuasive.

AFFIRMED.
