    No. 04-40116.
    Conference Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided Oct. 21, 2004.
    James Lee Turner, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Tony Ray Roberts, U.S. Attorney’s Office Southern District of Texas, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    Timothy William Crooks, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Marjorie A. Meyers, Federal Public Defender, Federal Public Defender’s Office Southern District of Texas, Houston, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before JOLLY, JONES, and WIENER, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Antonio Loredo-Torres appeals his sentence following his guilty plea conviction for illegal entry in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1325.

Loredo-Torres argues that the district court erred when it relied on information contained in the presentence report (PSR) to enhance his base offense level pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(vii) based on a determination that he had a prior conviction for an alien smuggling offense committed for profit. He concedes that his argument is foreclosed by United States v. Sanchez-Garcia, 319 F.3d 677, 678 (5th Cir.) cert. denied, 540 U.S. 918, 124 S.Ct. 311, 157 L.Ed.2d 213 (2003), which held that, to determine whether a defendant’s prior conviction satisfied U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(vii), the district court was not limited to consideration of conduct charged in the indictment but could go beyond the statute of conviction and the charging instrument. Sanchez-Garcia forecloses Loredo-Torres’ argument, and the district court did not err by considering the PSR to determine whether to apply U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(vii).

Loredo-Torres also argues that the district court erred when it applied U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(vii) because transportation of illegal aliens is not “alien smuggling.” Loredo-Torres concedes that this claim is foreclosed by United States v. Solis-Campozano, 312 F.3d 164, 167-68 (5th Cir.2002), cert, denied, 538 U.S. 991, 123 S.Ct. 1811, 155 L.Ed.2d 689 (2003), in which this court held that the term “alien smuggling offense,” as used in U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(vii), includes the offense of transporting aliens within the United States. Based on Solis-Campozano, the 16-level increase to Loredo-Torres’ offense level was not error.

The district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
