   MEMORANDUM

Mihran Melkonyan, a native of the Soviet Union and a citizen of Armenia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his applications for adjustment of status and a waiver under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(i). We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary denial of Melkonyaris application for a waiver of inadmissibility under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(i), where Melkonyan does not raise a colorable constitutional claim or question of law that would invoke our jurisdiction. See 8 U.S.C. §§ 1182(i)(2), 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); Corona-Mendez v. Holder, 593 F.3d 1143, 1146 (9th Cir. 2010).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
