¿Necesitas la FOIA si no tienes la I-94 para tu ajuste de estatus? #abogada #shorts
In this short Spanish‑language legal advice clip, attorney Lorena Rivas explains how a person can adjust status in the United States when they are applying based on a child who is 21 years old. She clarifies that the applicant must prove that their most recent entry into the U.S. was lawful. If the applicant does not have the latest I‑94 or another entry record, she advises filing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to obtain the entry documentation. She notes that a valid visa covering the entry period can also serve as evidence, but immigration officials will still typically ask for the I‑94 or the entry stamp. The overall guidance is to secure any proof of legal entry—preferably through a FOIA request—before submitting the adjustment‑of‑status application.
