In this live Spanish‑language Q&A, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a series of viewer questions across multiple platforms (TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube). She explains how spouses of permanent‑resident citizens may adjust status without leaving the U.S., clarifies the difference between a U‑visa petition being "accepted" versus being "approved," and outlines the lengthy processing timeline for VAWA petitions (approximately three years). Rivas advises that travelers with a pending I‑751 receipt can leave the country, and describes the Biden administration’s policy of granting work permits to U‑visa applicants deemed "good‑faith" cases, especially those filed before September 30 2017. She shares a success story of overturning a fraud allegation and securing residency for a client, warns viewers about fake WhatsApp numbers used by scammers, and encourages people to keep fighting for their immigration status, offering her firm’s nationwide representation and contact numbers (918‑505‑4870, 1‑844‑37‑RIVAS). Additional topics include using a U.S. citizen child over 21 as a sponsor for parents and the importance of thorough case review when other attorneys have given up.
