   MEMORANDUM

Delia Maritza Perez-Fajardo, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen, Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir.2010), and we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Perez-Fajardo’s motion to reopen as untimely because Perez-Fajardo failed to present material evidence of changed circumstances in Guatemala to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time limit for filing a motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Najmabadi, 597 F.3d at 990 (previously unavailable evidence must be material to the petitioner’s claim).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
