OPINION PER CURIAM. Frank Fasano appeals from the District Court’s order dismissing his civil rights complaint. For the reasons below, we will summarily affirm the District Court’s order. In 2005, Fasano filed a pro se civil rights action against the United States of America and various federal officials, alleging that his civil rights had been violated as a result of defendants’ having denied his wife, Shirley Maia-Fasano, a visa to permit her to re-enter the United States. He sought damages and an order directing the defendants to grant Maia-Fasano a visa to re-enter the United States.
The defendants filed a motion to dismiss, which the District Court granted. The District Court explained that it did not have jurisdiction to review the decision regarding waiver of exclusion under the Act, noting that Fasano did not argue to the contrary, and held that Fasano’s constitutional claim was without merit. Fasano timely appealed. We conclude that the District Court properly granted the motion to dismiss Fasano’s complaint. The Constitution “does not recognize the right of a citizen spouse to have his or her alien spouse remain in the country.” Bangura v.
Hansen, 434 F.3d 487, 496 (6th Cir.2006)(quoting Almario v. Attorney General, 872 F.2d 147, 151 (6th Cir.1989)); see also Burrafato v. U.S. Dept. of State, 523 F.2d 554, 555 (2nd Cir.1975) (reaffirming that no constitutional right of a citizen spouse is violated by deportation of his alien spouse). As no substantial question is presented in this appeal, we will grant appellees’ motion and will affirm the District Court’s order. See 3rd Cir. LAR 27.4 and I.O.P. 10.6. . Maia-Fasano came to the United States from Brazil in 1996 as a non-immigrant visitor.
Thereafter, she married an American citizen and filed an application for an adjustment of status based on the marriage. The application was denied in October 2001 for lack of prosecution. In 2004, Maia-Fasano divorced her first husband and married Fasano. She left the country thereafter to visit her mother, who was ill, and was denied re-entry in April 2004. Fasano filed for a waiver under
section 212(a)(9)(B)(
v) of the Immigration and Nationality Act on his wife’s behalf. The application was denied in February 2005, by the Officer in Charge in Lima, Peru. That decision was appealed, but the appeal was dismissed. The case was reopened in November 2005; the prior decisions were affirmed.
