In this live Spanish-language session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas of Rivas y Asociados addresses a flood of audience questions about VAWA, Visa U, Visa T, and related immigration processes. She refutes misinformation claiming that VAWA and Visa U applications are being cancelled, explaining that these protections are established by Congress and remain active. Rivas clarifies eligibility, confidentiality, and the impact (or lack thereof) on abusers, and outlines the required forms (I-360, I-485, I-765, I-131, G-28, I-864W, medical exam) for VAWA adjustment of status. She discusses procedural nuances such as filing the I-192 forgiveness after a Visa U petition, handling DUI or other criminal issues, using the combo card (Advance Parole) for travel, and the limits of travel for permanent residents. The attorney also corrects misconceptions about proposed “Dignity Act” legislation, explains how to close an asylum case after obtaining permanent residency, and provides guidance on Real ID, state IDs, and the impact of removal of conditions (I-751) on travel. Throughout, she offers practical advice, encourages focusing on positive outcomes, and repeatedly shares contact information for her firm.
