In this Spanish‑language live Q&A, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a series of callers’ questions about common immigration procedures and pitfalls. She explains that a pending I‑90 (green‑card replacement) receipt can be submitted together with a naturalization application, allowing citizenship to be granted even before the new card arrives. She clarifies why a recently approved I‑485 may still be delayed in card issuance and advises on follow‑up steps. The attorney discusses family‑based petitions, emphasizing that U.S. citizen children aged 21 or older can sponsor their parents both inside and outside the United States, and outlines the various pathways (adjustment of status, 245(i) protection, military parole, VAWA, consular processing) that may apply even to undocumented entrants. She provides practical guidance on rescheduling fingerprint appointments, correcting online filing errors, and the limited impact of reckless‑driving offenses on work‑permit eligibility while noting possible effects on residency applications. Throughout, she supplies phone numbers for her firm and encourages callers to seek personalized legal counsel.
