               Respondent.

                       On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                           Board of Immigration Appeals

                             Submitted January 11, 2010 **

Before:        BEEZER, TROTT, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.

        Juana Ines Salazar-Armenta, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for

review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her appeal from an

immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision finding her removable for having participated

in alien smuggling. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review

de novo questions of law. Altamirano v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d 586, 591 (9th Cir.

2005). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

       The IJ correctly determined that Salazar-Armenta is inadmissible due to her

participation in alien smuggling. See 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(6)(E)(i); see also

Altamirano, 427 F.3d at 592.

       We lack jurisdiction to consider Salazar-Armenta’s contention that the I-213

form did not demonstrate whether a government agent had informed her of her

rights because she did not raise that issue before the BIA. See Barron v. Ashcroft,

358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir. 2004).

       PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
