   MEMORANDUM

Jesus Alberto Delgado, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order affirming without opinion an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision finding Delgado inadmissible under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a) (6)(A)(i) for having entered without inspection and ordering him removed. To the extent we have jurisdiction, it is pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

We review factual findings for substantial evidence. See Aruta v. INS, 80 F.3d 1389, 1393 (9th Cir.1996). The IJ properly sustained the charge against Delgado by relying on the record of deportable/inad-missible alien (“1-213”). See Espinoza v. INS, 45 F.3d 308, 310 (9th Cir.1995) (holding the government met its burden of proving removability where it submitted an authenticated, reliable 1-213, in which the individual conceded alienage). Delgado failed to present evidence that the I-213 is unreliable, or independently establish his entry was by means of lawful admission. See id; see also 8 U.S.C. § 1361 (an individual in removal proceedings has the burden to show “the time, place, and manner of his entry into the United States”).

We lack jurisdiction to review Delgado’s remaining contentions because he failed to raise them before the BIA and thereby did not exhaust his administrative remedies. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir.2004) (explaining that this court lacks jurisdiction to review contentions not raised before the agency).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
