    Petitioner,
    v.                                             MEMORANDUM *
    MICHAEL B. MUKASEY, Attorney
    General,
    Respondent.
    On Petition for Review of an Order of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals
    Submitted May 25, 2010 **
    Before:        CANBY, THOMAS, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.
    Ana Epifania Gonzalez Talamantes, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions
    pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her
    *
    This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
    except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
    **
    The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
    without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
    motion to reissue the BIA’s prior order. We review for abuse of discretion, Lara-
    Torres v. Ashcroft, 
    383 F.3d 968
    , 972 (9th Cir. 2004), amended by 
    404 F.3d 1105
    (9th Cir. 2005), and we grant the petition and remand for further proceedings.
    The BIA abused its discretion by failing to address the declaration Gonzalez
    Talamantes submitted to show that she did not receive the BIA’s November 22,
    2006 order. See Singh v. Gonzales, 
    494 F.3d 1170
    , 1172 (9th Cir. 2007)
    (presumption of proper mailing created by transmittal of cover letter may be
    overcome by evidence of non-receipt by a petitioner or counsel). We remand for
    the BIA to review the evidence in the first instance and to determine whether it is
    sufficient to overcome the presumption of mailing.
    PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
