In this live Spanish-language YouTube session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas of Rivas y Asociados fields a rapid-fire series of viewer questions covering a broad spectrum of U.S. immigration issues. She explains the 245(i) program, VAWA petitions, U and T visas, I-601/601A waivers, the impact of criminal records such as DWI on immigration status, and the realities of being stopped at checkpoints even without a criminal record. Rivas also discusses family-based petitions (I-130/I-485), adjustment of status timelines, travel permissions (Advance Parole, work permits), DACA, TPS, asylum, and cancellation of removal. Throughout, she provides practical guidance, estimates processing times, warns about common pitfalls (e.g., fraud concerns, visa overstays), and promotes her firm’s contact number and radio appearances. The session emphasizes empowerment through information, urging viewers to avoid checkpoints, seek legal counsel, and stay informed about evolving immigration policies.
