In this short Spanish-language video, an immigration attorney from Rivas y Asociados answers a viewer’s question about whether a husband who has just become a U.S. citizen can sponsor the viewer’s adult child who entered the U.S. on a visa. The attorney explains that the husband could have filed for the child while he was a permanent resident, but the key factor now is the child’s age. If the child is under 21, U.S. immigration law treats them as a minor (an immediate relative), allowing a faster, more straightforward petition. If the child is 21 or older, they fall into a slower family‑preference category, which has longer processing times. The attorney advises filing the petition before the child turns 21 to secure the quicker route, and emphasizes the importance of acting promptly. The video ends with the firm’s branding message.
