In this live Spanish‑language session, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a rapid stream of viewer questions about U.S. immigration. She explains who can sponsor family members (differences between U.S. citizens and permanent residents), the eligibility criteria and current processing times for DACA, the role of waivers (perdon) for unlawful presence and multiple departures, and how VAWA can provide work permits and eventual residency for victims of domestic violence. Rivas discusses the long backlogs for U visas, the timing and requirements for asylum applications and associated work permits, and how prior deportations or criminal convictions affect eligibility for citizenship or residency. She clarifies which relatives (spouse, children, parents, siblings, half‑siblings) a citizen can petition, and which cannot (aunts, uncles, grandparents). Humanitarian avenues such as humanitarian parole, military parole, 245(i) protection, and trafficking victim relief are also covered. Throughout, she stresses the need for a personalized case review, encourages viewers to schedule a consultation via her office phone (918‑505‑4870), and repeatedly offers contact information across platforms. The tone is conversational, supportive, and instructional, aiming to demystify complex immigration processes while promoting her legal services.
