OPINION OF THE COURT
Mario Calixte is subject to a final order of removal, and we have previously denied his petition for review. See Calixte v. Ashcroft, 93 Fed.Appx. 442 (3d Cir.2004). While that petition was pending, however, Calixte petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus in the Middle District of Pennsylvania. After Congress enacted the REAL ID Act, the District Court converted the case to a petition for review and transferred it to us. See Bonhometre v. Gonzales, 414 F.3d 442, 446 (3d Cir.2005). Calixte argues that he is now eligible for permanent residency, and he asks us to grant the petition so that an Immigration Judge can consider his application for an adjustment of status. See 8 U.S.C. § 1255(a). We write only for the parties and do not state the facts separately. We read the petition to challenge the denial of Calixte’s motion to reopen, and deny it because the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) did not abuse its discretion.
I.
At the outset, we must address our jurisdiction. The Attorney General argues that Calixte failed to exhaust his remedies, 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1), and that the petition impermissibly challenges the decision to execute a final order of removal, 8 U.S.C. § 1252(g). Both of these arguments presuppose that Calixte “has not challenged the [BIA’s] denial of his motion to reopen.” See Atty. Gen. Br. at 12.
We agree with the Attorney General that Calixte’s brief is not a model of clarity. It contains one paragraph of argument, and it never explicitly mentions the BIA’s denial of the motion to reopen. Nonetheless, the brief does contain a veiled reference to the BIA’s “refusal to adjudicate” Calixte’s application, and the *134motion to reopen is the only basis in law for this petition. We will therefore construe this second petition as a challenge to the BIA’s denial of the motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction to review that determination. See Sevoian v. Ashcroft, 290 F.3d 166, 171 (3d Cir.2002).
II.
We review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. Lu v. Ashcroft, 259 F.3d 127, 131 (3d Cir. 2001). We may grant the petition only if the denial was “arbitrary, irrational, or contrary to law.” Caushi v. Attorney General, 436 F.3d 220, 226 (3d Cir.2006) (internal quotation omitted). The BIA determined that Calixte had failed to demonstrate prima facie eligibility for an adjustment of status. Because Calixte did not have an immigrant visa available to him at the time of the BIA’s decision, that determination was not an abuse of discretion. See 8 U.S.C. § 1255(a). Accordingly, we must deny the petition for review.
