The segment is a live, call‑in immigration advice show hosted by Cinthia on Radio Las Américas, featuring attorney Lorena Rivas, Esq. The program runs from 11:00‑11:30 a.m. Central and invites listeners to call or WhatsApp with questions. Lorena answers a wide range of topics: the Trump administration’s proposed immigrant registration (a dormant law that may be enforced, currently without a form), consular processing and the need for a medical exam before the interview, the 601A provisional waiver and its 4‑year validity, VAWA (Violence‑Against‑Women Act) processing delays (≈3 years) and when the medical exam is required, Visa U receipt timelines (≈3 months) and the necessity of police certification, parole‑in‑place for children of U.S. military members, citizenship eligibility for permanent residents (5 years, or 3 years if married to a citizen), sibling petitions (only U.S. citizens can petition siblings), employer‑sponsored petitions, common‑law marriage applicability for VAWA in different states, the impact of criminal history and TB testing, the new rule that new I‑485 applicants must submit the medical exam with the filing, and practical advice on contacting Rivas & Asociados for consultations. Throughout, Lorena emphasizes caution about the registration proposal, the importance of professional legal counsel, and provides phone numbers and social‑media handles for her firm.
