MEMORANDUM **

Simon Guadalupe Alverez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Vasquez de Alcantar v. Holder, 645 F.3d 1097, 1099 (9th Cir. 2011), and we deny the petition for review.

The BIA properly concluded that Alver-ez was ineligible for cancellation of removal because he lacked seven years of continuous residence in the United States after being “admitted in any status.” See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(a)(2); 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(12)(B) (parole is not considered admission); Vasquez de Alcantar, 645 F.3d at 1102 (filing an application for adjustment of status does not constitute “admitted in any status”).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
