In this live, Spanish‑language radio/YouTube broadcast, host Rubén interviews immigration attorney Lorena Rivas, Esq. The program blends personal anecdotes about growing up in rural Oklahoma with a rapid‑fire Q&A session where callers seek guidance on a wide range of U.S. immigration matters. Lorena explains her own early work experience, discusses the current administrative pause on adjustment‑of‑status applications and its limited effect on VAWA, U, and T visas, and outlines processing timelines for family‑based petitions (including sibling petitions that require the petitioner to be 21 and can take 15‑25 years). She clarifies that military service does not accelerate family petitions, describes the use and risks of Advance Parole and travel for pending cases, and details the long wait times for Visa U (8‑9 years) and Visa T (2.5‑3 years). The attorney also addresses practical concerns such as acceptable payment methods for USCIS fees, the precarious status of DACA recipients, asylum interview backlogs, and strategies for filing or accelerating cases. Throughout, she provides contact numbers, encourages callers to reach her office, and promotes community outreach events across Oklahoma and neighboring states. The tone is conversational, empathetic, and instructional, aiming to empower the Latino immigrant community with realistic expectations and actionable advice.
