In this live Spanish‑language session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a stream of viewer questions about a wide range of U.S. immigration topics. She explains that DACA is currently not accepting new applications and clarifies the myth of a “10‑year law,” describing the actual cancellation of removal process and its four key requirements (10 years of presence, qualifying relative, good moral character, and extreme hardship to the relative). She details how Parole in Place (PIP) applicants must wait for approval before requesting a work permit, and outlines the U‑visa eligibility for victims of violent crimes, even when the crime occurred many years ago. Rivas advises that having a Social Security number does not confer work authorization without an Employment Authorization Document. She discusses options for individuals married to U.S. citizens or permanent residents who cannot rely on their spouse’s support, including self‑petition routes that can lead to a work permit in about six months and a green card in two to two‑and‑a‑half years. She addresses tax‑ID (ITIN) issues for children in VAWA cases, the possibility of adjusting status through an adult child over 21, and how to proceed after a border apprehension. Throughout, she emphasizes the importance of consulting an attorney promptly, especially before an immigration court hearing, and repeatedly provides her contact number (918‑505‑4870) for consultations. The session is informal, supportive, and aimed at empowering viewers with actionable immigration information.
