have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(1). Because substantial evidence supports the conclusion that Petitioner’s Arizona fraud con viction resulted in a loss to victims exceeding $10,000 and we lack jurisdiction over her motion to remand, the petition is DENIED in part and DISMISSED in part. 1. The agency correctly concluded that Petitioner is removable under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A )(iii) due to her conviction for an aggravated felony involving “fraud or deceit in which the loss to the victim or victims exceeds $10,000.” 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(M)(i). We review for substantial evidence a finding of fact that the victims’ losses exce ed $10,000. Don v. Gonzales , 476 F.3d 738, 741 (9th Cir. 2007) (“The standard of review for factual findings ... is ... substantial evidence.”); See Nijhawan v. Holder , 557 U.S. 29, 33

– 34 (2009) (holding that the “fraud and deceit” provision of 8 U.S.C. § 110 1(a)(43)(M)(i) calls for a circumstance

- specific inquiry that requires fact finding). Under the circumstance

- specific approach for determining a victim’s loss, the court looks at the circumstances surrounding the crime and whether the loss amount is tied to a count of conviction. Nijhawan , 557 U.S. . at 42. Sentencing

- related materials, such as the pre

- sentence report (PSR), restitution orders, and stipulations can be consulted to determine the amount of loss. Id . at 41

schemes and artifices name the victims. The PSR shows the amount of the victims’ payments to Petitioner and her co

- defendant totaling $10,280. The payments made by the victims were therefore tied to the counts of conviction for fr audulent schemes and artifices and the $10,000 threshold under 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(M)(i) is met. 2. Petitioner failed to exhaust her claim that a due process violation occurred when she was not afforded an opportunity to confront the preparer of her PSR. Therefore, this court lacks jurisdiction to hear this claim. Barron v. Ashcroft , 358 F.3d 674, 677

– 78 (9th Cir. 2004). Petitioner raises this issue for the first time in her opening brief. She did not object to the PSR or seek to

cross - examine witnesses during her immigration hearing. She also did not raise this issue in her brief to the Board. The issue of whether a witness should be

cross - examined is the type of procedural error an administrative tribunal can remedy when properly raised by a petitioner at the appropriate time. Id. at 678. 3. Because Petitioner was properly found to be rem ovable for committing an aggravated felony, we lack jurisdiction to review the Board’s denial of Petitioner’s motion to remand due to the criminal bar. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C). Although we retain jurisdiction to review constitutional claims or questions of law, Petitioner fails to raise any. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D). The stay of removal remains in place until the mandate issues. DENIED in part and DISMISSED in part
