PER CURIAM:

             Tawanda     Blair       seeks    to    appeal    the    district    court’s

order    upholding      the        Commissioner’s      decision      denying     Blair’s

application for supplemental security income filed on behalf of

her minor child.             The district court referred this case to a

magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(b)(1)(B) (West

2006 & Supp. 2011).            The magistrate judge recommended that the

Commissioner’s decision be upheld and advised Blair that failure

to    file   timely    objections        to   the    recommendation        could   waive

appellate     review     of    a     district      court     order    based    upon     the

recommendation.

             The   timely          filing     of    specific        objections     to     a

magistrate     judge’s        recommendation         is    necessary      to    preserve

appellate review of the substance of that recommendation when

the     parties       have     been      warned      of      the     consequences        of

noncompliance.         Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th

Cir. 1985); see also Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985).                           Blair

has waived appellate review by failing to file objections after

receiving proper warning.              Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.

             We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal    contentions         are    adequately      presented       in   the   materials




                                              2
before   the   court   and   argument   would   not   aid   the   decisional

process.   The motion to transfer to Atlanta, Georgia, is denied.



                                                                   DISMISSED
