MEMORANDUM ***

Mayra Menendez-Oliveros, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) dismissal of her appeal from an immigration judge’s (“U”) denial of her motion to reopen in absentia deportation proceedings. We have jurisdiction pursuant to former 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a). We review for abuse of discretion the BIA’s ruling on a motion to reopen, Arrieta v. INS, 117 F.3d 429, 430 (9th Cir. 1997) (per curiam), and review de novo due process claims, Colmenar v. INS, 210 F.3d 967, 971 (9th Cir. 2000). We deny the petition for review.

We reject Menendez-Oliveros’ contention that she was deprived of due process *988because she did not receive notice of the August 26, 1994 deportation hearing. The BIA properly concluded that Menendez-Oliveros failed to present sufficient evidence to overcome the strong presumption of delivery created by certified mail. See Arrieta, 117 F.3d at 431.

Moreover, the BIA correctly determined that Menendez-Oliveros was not entitled to equitable tolling of the time period for filing the motion to reopen because she did not demonstrate that her failure to appear at her deportation hearing was due to the deceptive actions of a notario. Cf. Fajardo v. INS, 300 F.3d 1018, 1022 (9th Cir. 2002).

Menendez-Oliveros’ remaining contentions lack merit.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
