Petitioner Jose Israel Guevarra, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) that, affirming without opinion, affirmed the decision of the Immigration Judge (IJ). The IJ had determined that Guevarra was statutorily eligible for relief under the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act of 1997 (NACARA), 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l), but exercised discretion and denied Guevarra relief.

Guevarra argues that the IJ lacked statutory authority to exercise discretion and committed “fundamental error” by failing to determine whether Guevarra had previously been granted asylum. But, Guevarra did not present these claims to the BIA, which has adequate mechanisms to address the errors alleged. As such, Guevarra’s claims are unexhausted, so we lack jurisdiction to review them. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1); see Wang v. Ashcroft, 260 F.3d 448, 452-453 (5th Cir. 2001); Goonsuwan v. Ashcroft, 252 F.3d 383, 389-90 (5th Cir. 2001).

Guevarra also challenges the IJ’s discretionary denial of relief. We have has no jurisdiction “to review ... any judgment regarding the granting of relief under section ... 1229(b).” § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i). Notwithstanding Guevarra’s attempt to circumvent this jurisdictional bar pursuant to § 1252(a)(2)(D) by characterizing his claims as questions of law, we lack jurisdiction to hear his claims. See Andrade v. Gonzales, 459 F.3d 538, 542 (5th Cir. 2006); Mireles-Valdez v. Ashcroft, 349 F.3d 213, 216 (5th Cir. 2003).

DISMISSED.
