MEMORANDUM **

Sofia Simona Bracamonte, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s continuous physical presence determination, Ibarra-Flores v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 614, 618 (9th Cir. 2006), and we deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Bracamonte did not meet the continuous physical presence requirement where she testified that she departed the United States for Mexico in 1996 for over nine months. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(d)(2) (departure in excess of ninety days breaks continuous physical presence).

Bracamonte’s contention that the BIA improperly denied her motion to file a late brief is unavailing.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
