SUMMARY ORDER

Petitioner Qi Jin Chen, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic of China, seeks review of the September 17, 2007 order of the BIA denying his motion to reopen. In re Qi Jin Chen, No. A78 853 760 (B.I.A. Sept. 17, 2007). Petitioner Xiao Dong Lin, Chen’s wife, also a native and citizen of China, seeks review of the October 4, 2007 order of the BIA denying her motion to reopen. In re Xiao Dong Lin, No. A77 169 322 (B.I.A. Oct. 4, 2007). We assume the parties’ familiarity with the[*469] underlying facts and procedural history of the cases.

We review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. Kaur v. BIA 413 F.Sd 232, 233 (2d Cir.2005) (per curiam). “An abuse of discretion may be found ... where the [BIA’s] decision provides no rational explanation, inexplicably departs from established policies, is devoid of any reasoning, or contains only summary or conclusory statements; that is to say, where the Board has acted in an arbitrary or capricious manner.” Ke Zhen Zhao v. U.S. Dep't of Justice, 265 F.3d 83, 93 (2d Cir.2001) (internal citations omitted). In reviewing the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen, we remain mindful of the Supreme Court’s admonition that motions to reopen are “disfavored.” Maghradze v. Gonzales, 462 F.3d 150, 154 (2d Cir.2006) (citing INS v. Abudu, 485 U.S. 94, 107, 108 S.Ct. 904, 99 L.Ed.2d 90 (1988)).

Before this Court, Chen and Lin argue extensively that they established prima facie eligibility for asylum, but devote only two sentences to their argument that they are prima facie eligible for withholding of removal. In light of the foregoing, we limit our review to the BIA’s denial of the motions to reopen to apply for asylum and consider all other claims for relief abandoned.^[2] See Zhang v. Gonzales, 426 F.3d 540, 546 n. 7 (2d Cir.2005) (treating claim as abandoned where brief contains only conclusory reference).

I. CHEN

We find no abuse of discretion in the BIA’s denial of Chen’s motion on the grounds that he had not attached Form I-589 as required by regulation. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(1) (“A motion to reopen proceedings for the purpose of submitting an application for relief must be accompanied by the appropriate application for relief and all supporting documentation.”). The BIA found Chen’s failure to include Form 1-589 particularly significant in light of the fact that he had never applied for asylum (before the IJ, he requested only relief under the Convention Against Torture) and his prior claim for relief (which was based on his illegal departure from China) was unrelated to his claim based on China’s coercive population control program. While we need rely only on the plain language of 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(1) to conclude that the BIA’s decision does not manifest an abuse of discretion, we note that the Fifth Circuit has reached the same conclusion.^[3] See Waggoner v. Gonzales, 488 F.3d 632, 638-39 (5th Cir.2007).

II. LIN

The Supreme Court has identified “at least three independent grounds on which the BIA may deny a motion to reopen”: (1) failure to establish a prima facie case for the underlying substantive relief sought; (2) failure to introduce material, previously unavailable evidence or, in the case of an initial application for discretionary relief (e.g., asylum), failure to explain why such an application was not filed at[*470] the former hearing; and (3) where the ultimate form of relief sought is discretionary (e.g., asylum) “the BIA may leap ahead, as it were, over the two threshold concerns (prima facie case and new evidence/reasonable explanation), and simply determine that even if they were met, the movant would not be entitled to the discretionary grant of relief.” Abudu, 485 U.S. at 104-05, 108 S.Ct. 904; see also 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (“The Board has discretion to deny a motion to reopen even if the party moving has made out a prima facie case for relief.”).

Even assuming that Lin had established prima facie eligibility for asylum, and had properly supported her motion with material and previously unavailable evidence, the BIA declined to reopen her case as a matter of discretion because she had been found not credible in the context of her original asylum hearing. Lin argues that the BIA’s decision was an abuse of discretion, relying on Jian Lian Guo v. Ashcroft, 386 F.3d 556 (3d Cir.2004). The case is not analogous. In Jian Lian Guo, “the basis for the IJ’s credibility assessment was utterly unrelated to [the petitioner’s] later claim.” Id. at 562. By contrast, the adverse credibility determination in Lin’s case is directly related to her renewed asylum claim. Lin presents no authority precluding the BIA from viewing a prior adverse credibility determination as a negative factor in such circumstances. Therefore, we find no basis to conclude that the BIA abused its discretion in denying Lin’s motion.^[4]
