Marco Herrera petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) affirming the decision of the immigration judge (IJ) that Herrera did *814 not qualify for cancellation of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l). Herrera does not repeat assertions made at the administrative level that he was entitled to relief under the Child Status Protection Act. Any such argument is abandoned. See Calderon-Ontiveros v. INS, 809 F.2d 1050, 1052 (5th Cir. 1986). Although Herrera contends that the IJ and the BIA did not fully and fairly consider evidence, he does not identify any evidence that was ignored. Herrera is not entitled to relief on this ground.

Herrera asserts that the attorney representing him before the BIA rendered ineffective assistance by failing to file a brief on his behalf. He did not raise this claim before the BIA through a motion to reopen. See Roy v. Ashcroft, 389 F.3d 132, 137 (5th Cir. 2004); Goonsuwan v. Ashcroft, 252 F.3d 383, 389-91 (5th Cir. 2001). Because Herrera did not exhaust his administrative remedies with respect to this claim, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider it. See Wang v. Ashcroft, 260 F.3d 448, 452-53 (5th Cir. 2001).

Herrera contends that he was entitled to cancellation of removal because he established that both his mother and his grandmother would suffer “exceptional and extremely unusual hardship” if he were removed. 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D). Herrera never argued that his grandmother was a qualifying individual under the statute, and he has thus failed to exhaust administrative remedies. See Wang, 260 F.3d at 452-53. Regardless, the claim is unavailing. See INS v. Hector, 479 U.S. 85, 88-90, 107 S.Ct. 379, 93 L.Ed.2d 326 (1986)(per curiam)(the BIA need not consider hardships to individuals not defined in 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D)). Likewise, Herrera did not raise an argument about his mother’s hardship before the BIA and the claim is unexhausted. See Wang, 260 F.3d at 452-53. Even if the BIA’s consideration of this issue suffices to exhaust the claim, this court cannot review the discretionary decision of the IJ. See Rueda v. Ashcroft, 380 F.3d 831, 831 (5th Cir. 2004).

PETITION DENIED.
