In this live Spanish‑language Q&A, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas, Esq., addresses a wide array of immigration questions from viewers across the United States and abroad via TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook. She explains how individuals who entered on a tourist visa can obtain legal permanent residency through family sponsorship, employment, or humanitarian avenues; outlines the timing and eligibility for work permits (EAD) especially for asylum applicants under the C8 category (150‑day filing, 180‑day approval); describes the types of evidence that prove continuous physical presence for residency requirements. Rivas clarifies the differences between sponsorship by U.S. citizens versus permanent residents, the role of special visas such as U‑visa, VAWA, T‑visa, and how they grant work authorization. She discusses the impact of criminal records, DUI, and expungement on immigration cases, and when a waiver (I‑601) may be needed. The attorney also covers naturalization (N‑400) eligibility, the effect of a 10‑year unlawful‑presence bar and possible waivers, and the choice between consular processing and adjustment of status. Throughout, she promotes her firm’s nationwide service, provides two phone numbers (844‑377‑RIVAS and 918‑505‑4870), mentions a $350 contract discount before year‑end, and encourages viewers to follow her on social media for further assistance.
