In this multi‑platform live broadcast, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas greets viewers on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook, provides her office contact numbers (918‑505‑4870 and 844‑37‑RIVAS) and proceeds to answer a rapid‑fire series of audience questions about U.S. immigration. She explains the VAWA self‑petition (eligibility, required testimony, lack of need for police reports, typical timeline of 3‑3.5 years to residency, work‑permit filing, and that a denied VAWA does not trigger automatic deportation). She clarifies the U‑visa (victim of crime, inclusion of derivatives, annual cap of 10,000, work‑permit before approval, long processing times) and the T‑visa (victims of trafficking, evidence requirements, path to green card). She discusses marriage‑based adjustment (proof of bona‑fide marriage, joint documents, timing of divorce relative to VAWA). She addresses sibling petitions, parental petitions, the 245(i) protection (pre‑April 30 2001 filing, continued eligibility), military parole for parents of service members, waivers such as I‑601A (for unlawful presence), asylum filing rules, and how criminal matters (tickets, ICE holds) affect cases. Throughout she repeatedly invites viewers to schedule consultations via phone or her social‑media channels, emphasizing nationwide service from her Tulsa office. The session ends with reminders to share the video and contact her for personalized help.
