Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Isau Lopez-Recinos, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's ("IJ") decision denying his application for cancellation of removal. We dismiss the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency's discretionary determination that Lopez-Recinos failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a qualifying relative. See Mendez-Castro v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 975, 978 (9th Cir.2009).
Lopez-Recinos' contentions that the agency violated his due process rights by disregarding his evidence of hardship are not supported by the record and do not amount to colorable constitutional claims. See id. at 980; see also Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir. 2005) ("[TJraditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction.").
We lack jurisdiction to review Lopez-Recinos' unexhausted contentions that the IJ violated due process by prohibiting him from filing a Temporary Protective Status ("TPS") application and that the government erred by failing to advise him of his right to apply for a waiver of inadmissibility. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir.2004).
We do not reach Lopez-Recinos' contentions regarding whether he merited TPS because he did not file a TPS application before the IJ.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
