PER CURIAM:

           Rebecca J. McMahan appeals the magistrate judge’s order

and judgment affirming the Commissioner’s denial of supplemental

disability insurance benefits for her minor son.*          We must uphold

the decision to deny benefits if the decision is supported by

substantial evidence and the correct law was applied.                  See 42

U.S.C. § 405(g) (2000); Craig v. Chater, 76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir.

1996).    We have thoroughly reviewed the administrative record and

the parties’ briefs and find no reversible error.         Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the magistrate judge.                    See

McMahan v. Barnhart, No. 1:04-cv-00216 (W.D.N.C. Apr. 17, 2006).

We   dispense   with   oral   argument   because   the   facts   and    legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                  AFFIRMED




      *
      The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
