*1 Before: SILER,** KLEINFELD, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.
The Board of Immigration Appeals erred as a matter of law in concluding that it lacked jurisdiction to hear Turcios’s case because his notice of appeal was received late due to delivery service error. The thirty-day time limit contained in 8 *2 C.F.R. § 1003.38 is a claim-processing rule, not a jurisdictional limitation. Irigoyen-Briones v. Holder, 07-71806, slip op. (9th Cir. 2011). We remand to the agency to permit it fully to reconsider whether, under the circumstances presented, it will hear the appeal from the Immigration Judge’s decision in this case.
The PETITION IS GRANTED , the Board’s decision VACATED , and the case REMANDED .
