In this pre‑recorded live session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas of Rivas y Asociados answers a rapid stream of viewer questions in Spanish. She clarifies that lawful permanent residents (green‑card holders) may travel internationally except when they have serious criminal convictions, are in removal proceedings, or have been outside the U.S. for more than six months without maintaining residence. She explains the limited list of travel‑ban countries and advises caution about Cuba and Venezuela. Rivas details the I‑601A provisional waiver (the “perdón”) for unlawful presence, emphasizing that it is only available to those with a U.S. citizen or permanent‑resident spouse or parent, not to those relying solely on a citizen child. She discusses VAWA, Visa U, Visa T, and other humanitarian relief options, noting processing times, certification requirements, and the possibility of appeals. The attorney addresses practical concerns such as renewing VAWA work permits, the impact of receiving public benefits like WIC, the effect of a DUI on naturalization, and the need to avoid traveling when an order of deportation is pending. She also describes her firm’s practice of accompanying clients to USCIS interviews, the distinction between USCIS interviews and ICE check‑ins, and provides contact information for consultations across all 50 states. Throughout, Rivas stresses the importance of consulting a qualified immigration lawyer, obtaining multiple opinions, and not relying on misinformation circulating online.
