In this live, call‑in radio segment, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas, Esq. fields a rapid series of listener questions about U.S. immigration law. The program opens with light‑hearted Halloween banter before moving into substantive legal advice. Rivas explains the adjustment‑of‑status (I‑485) process, how it interacts with family petitions (I‑130) and work/travel permits (I‑765, I‑131), and provides typical processing timelines (about one year for I‑485 in Oklahoma, 18‑21 months for Visa T, 21 months for I‑601 waivers). She addresses the impact of criminal matters such as DUIs on marriage‑based applications, clarifies that a single DUI does not automatically revoke residency but multiple offenses can trigger removal. The attorney discusses eligibility for special visas (U, T, VAWA, 245(i)), the role of military‑related parole, and how to use credit reports and entry/exit records to detect fraudulent green‑card use. Rivas also advises callers with prior deportations, permanent bars, and conditional residency (I‑751) on possible remedies. Throughout, she promotes her firm’s contact numbers, WhatsApp service, and a community English‑learning program. The tone is conversational yet instructional, offering empathetic reassurance while emphasizing legal realities.
