In this live, bilingual radio segment on Radio Las Américas, host Speaker A welcomes immigration attorney Lorena Rivas, Esq. to answer a rapid‑fire series of listener questions about U.S. immigration. The conversation covers a wide range of topics: the importance of learning English and the free‑or‑low‑cost classes offered by the Colegio de Sueños (including citizenship exam preparation), timelines for filing and receiving a naturalization interview, how criminal charges (public intoxication, obstruction) may affect an asylum claim, the use of a Social Security number after a work permit expires, the meaning of a prima facie notice in VAWA cases, costs and duration of English/citizenship courses, how to locate a detained family member via the Detainer Locator, typical processing times for work permits tied to cancellation of removal, eligibility for a U visa and the need for police certification, the ability to travel with Advance Parole when holding TPS or VAWA status, VAWA processing windows (18‑24 months), asylum adjustment timelines (12‑24 months), options for reopening a denied asylum case, obtaining a U.S. passport for a minor abroad, domestic‑violence survivors’ eligibility for VAWA or U‑visa relief, and the firm’s office locations, phone numbers, and social‑media contacts. Throughout, Lorena provides practical, compassionate advice, urges callers to seek criminal or immigration counsel when needed, and repeatedly offers her firm’s contact information for personalized consultations.
