MEMORANDUM **

Armando Gonzalez — Garcia, a native of Mexico and lawful permanent resident, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We grant the petition and remand for further proceedings.

The IJ concluded that Gonzalez-Garcia engaged in alien smuggling due to his “complicity with the actions of his uncle and [the alien].” Neither the IJ nor the BIA had the benefit, however, of this court’s decision in Altamirano v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d 586, 596 (9th Cir. 2005) (concluding that the alien smuggling statute requires more than knowledge and presence; it requires “an affirmative act of assistance or encouragement”). In accordance with INS v. Ventura, 537 U.S. 12, 16-17, 123 S.Ct. 353, 154 L.Ed.2d 272 (2002) (per curiam), we remand for further proceedings in light of Altamirano.

PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
