MEMORANDUM **
Ramon Astorga Salazar and his wife, Maria Del Carmen Astorga, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition pro se for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) denying their motion to reopen removal proceedings. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. *863We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Ordonez v. INS, 345 F.3d 777, 782 (9th Cir.2003), and we dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review petitioners’ contention that they demonstrated eligibility for relief under the Convention Against Torture because they failed to raise that issue before the BIA and thereby failed to exhaust their administrative remedies. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir.2004) (the court lacks jurisdiction to review contentions not raised before the agency).
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ motion to reopen as untimely because it was filed over eleven months after the BIA’s final order of removal, see 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i) (motion to reopen must be filed within ninety days of final order of removal), and petitioners did not show that any regulatory exception to the time limitation applied, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3), or that they were entitled to equitable tolling, see Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 897 (9th Cir.2003) (deadline for filing motion to reopen can be equitably tolled “when a petitioner is prevented from filing because of deception, fraud, or error, as long as the petitioner acts with due diligence”).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
