In this live Spanish‑language session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas fields a rapid‑fire series of viewer questions about U.S. immigration. She explains the availability and requirements of fraud waivers for individuals who entered with false documents, options for F‑1 students who have overstayed, the effect of divorce on marriage‑based green cards, and the typical timeline for receiving a Social Security number after a work permit is issued. Rivas outlines VAWA work‑permit processing (6‑8 months), compares adjustment‑of‑status versus consular processing for spouses, discusses consular appointment wait times (approximately two years in her experience), and debunks the myth of a “10‑year law,” clarifying that cancellation of removal requires ten years of residence plus additional hardship and moral‑character criteria and only applies to people already in removal proceedings. Throughout, she provides her office phone number, mentions her presence on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook, and encourages viewers to contact her for representation across the United States.
