A
A
B
A
Good
good
good
to
be
able
to
stop
here
again.
You
and
I
had
a
show
a
couple
of
years
ago,
and
there
are
many
things
in
terms
of
immigration
that
have
changed
and
we
would
love
to
have
this
new
information
to
have
hearing
up
to
date
in
terms
of
immigration.
But
before
we
start
talking
about
certain
interesting
topics,
tell
us
what
are
the
main
services
that
immigration
provides
to
the
Hispanic
community
in
the
county
of
andando,
yes,.
B
A
few
years
ago,
we
were
falling
in
love
that,
even
though
e,
but
we
are
here
now,
we
see
everything
that
is
defense
in
terms
of
immigration,
only
immigration.
For
now,
because
we
have
a
lot
of
work,
we
make
family
petitions
for
people
who
have
a
relative
outside
of
the
usa
who
want.
It
is
true
to
ask
for.
A
B
Originally
I
was
alone.
Now
we
have
another
lawyer,
the
lawyer,
marisol
valentín
joined
our
firm
and
we
are
between
the
two
of
us.
We
go
to
court,
we
do
everything,
the
process
with
clients
and
we
have
our
assistant
named
Paula,
who
also
who
is
in
the
office.
She
helps
us
with
translations
interpretations
at
the
hearing
and
all
kinds
of
help
with
clients.
Well,
the
three.
A
B
B
A
This
is
a
question
that
is
not
only
for
the
firm
for
my
Atlantic
age,,
but
in
general,
in
terms
of
resources
for
immigration
services
in
Anna
County,,
giving
many
of
the
non-Hispanic
families
do.
They
have
the
financial
resources
to
say,
I'm,
going
to
pay
for
a
lawyer
I'm
going
to
get
this
service.
Is
there
any
kind
of
help
in
the
county
for
those
families
or
as
officials?
If.
B
There
is
obviously
a
free
services
are
limited
at
the
level
of
all
of
all,
of
maryland
and
of
united
states
in
lambert
or,
for
example.
I
belong
to
the
board
of
directors
of
the
help
center
here
in
annapolis
and
the
help
center
we
offer
as
part
of
the
services
of
the
center.
We
do
legal
clinics,
we
do
you,
we
do
immigration
clinics
once
a
month.
You
call
the
help
center
and
they
tell
you
what
day
I
'm
going
to
be
there
and
the
services
there
are
free.
There.
A
B
Listen
and
see
True,
and
my
lawyer
Marisol,
is
there
or
she
is
with
both
of
us.
Many
times
we
listen
to
people's
situations.
We,
evaluate
if
you
are
true.
Many
times
they
do
not
require
the
services
of
a
lawyer,
but
rather
require
other
services,.
So
we
refer
them
to
the
services
that
they
really
need.
At
the
moment,.
If
they
are
people
who
cannot
pay
for
lawyer
services,
but
if
they
need
them,,
then
we
refer
them
to
some
non-profit
organizations
that
can
offer
them
those
services,
we
too,.
B
At
least
me
in
my
office,
to
my
clients,
as
I
know.
The
situation.
It
is
that
the
clients
live,
so
I
offer
them
a
payment.
Plan.
They
give
me
many
lawyers,.
Usually
they
ask
for
the
money
in
principle
to
be
able
to
work
on
their
case.
I.
Do
not
do
it
that
way,
I
ask
for
a
deposit
and
I
give
them
the
opportunity
in
several
months
they
are
paying,
and
so
they
are
working
and
they
are
paying
and
I
am
working
on
their
case
at
the.
B
The
fact
that
a
person
feels
that
they
have
no
money
should
not
be
an
impediment
for
them
to
seek
guidance
and
to
know
exactly
what
they
need
and
that
they
can
go
to
the
help
center
once
a
month.
I
know
that
there
are
other
organizations
than
the
Catholic
Church
and
I
am
in
contact
with
the
group
of
the
Catholic
Church,
and
we
also
refer
cases
to
each
other,
because
the
idea
of
this
is
to
help
the
community,
so
that
everyone
is
represented
when
they
need
it,,
regardless
of
who
they
are..
B
A
A
That
I
see,,
for
example,
in
my
work
as
a
bilingual
facilitator,,
is
the
case
of
high
school
boys,,
especially
those
young
people
who
have
already
reached
great
milestones
in
the
US
and
learned
English
and
are
being
very
successful
in
high
school,
either
because
they
do
sports
It's.
The
academic,
part,
they're
good,
people,,
amazing
students,,
but
they're
running
into
a
wall,
and
it's
an
apparent
frustration
when
they
want
to
see
possibilities
of
what
I'm
going
to
do
after
I
graduated
from
high
school.
It
turns
out
that
these
kids
don't
have
documents
and
they
feel
completely
frustrated.
A
B
B
They
are
going
to
live
through
the
same
thing.
They
are
going
to
experience
Through
the
same
process
as
high
school
children,,
at
least
in
these
cases,.
We
always
want
to
see
them
and
we
want
to
guide
them,
because
there
are
some
children
who
qualify
for
some
benefits
that
are
not
very
common
or
that
are
not
talked
about
much,,
but
there
are
many
options
for
them.
Sometimes,
not
all,
unfortunately,
but
we
always
try
these
or
perhaps
looking
at
who
can
qualify.
Perhaps
for
let's
say
one
of
the
benefits
that
we
are
now
evaluating.
B
The
special
youth
track,
which
is
a
benefit
given
to
children
who
came
to
the
US
in
these
cases.
What
is
required
for
the
special
youth
visa
is
that
the
child
has
been
abandoned,,
mistreated
or
abused
by
one
of
their.
Your
parents,
not
necessarily
both
parents,
can
be
one.
So
one
has
to
evaluate
the
life
history
of
each
of
those
children
to
see
if
there
is
a
possibility
that
they
will
get
a
special
youth
visa,
because
the
special
youth
visa
is
a
pathway
to
citizenship.
The
child
who
can
qualify
under
the
special
youth
visa
can
work.
B
They
can
become
a
citizen
at
some
point.
The
important
thing
is
that
they
have
to
come
on
time,
because
the
special
youth
visa
is
only
granted
to
children
under
21
years
and
while
under
21
years,
It
is
better
when
they
are
getting
very
close
to
21
years
of
age,.
It
is
a
little
more
difficult
for
them
to
obtain
the
benefit,.
That
is
why
he
mentioned
elementary
school
children,,
because
many
times
parents
do
not
seek
guidance
for
it
and
when
they
see
they
are
already
17
or
18
years,
old.
It
is
one
option.
B
Unfortunately,.
The
other
is
true..
We
are
still
in
a
pending
legal
process..
It
is
the
DACA
of
deferred
action
for
minors,
who
that
minors
arrived
in
the
usa,
but
they
are
still
children
who
are
within
that
benefit
that
as
long
as
the
court
does
not
decide
what
is
going
to
happen,
they
are
still
benefiting
from
the
cow
-it
is,
and
they
are
true
benefits
that
up
to
now,
we
always
evaluate
case
by
case
case
and
many
of
these
children.
B
If
they
have
a
special
youth
visa,
they
will
be
able
to
work,
but
a
child
who
does
not
have
documents
who
graduates
from
high
school
can
study
and
I
know
about
us
and
I
have
several
clients
who
are
in
the
card
and
community
college
for
a
while
and
They
are
studying
and
doing
some
degrees,
and
this
one
is
going
very
well
because
they
are
children
who
really
want
to
improve
themselves
and
that,
and
that
is
the
most
important
part,.
The
problem
will
come
when
the
time
comes
to
work,.
B
It
is
true
that
it
is
the
most
difficult
part,
but
We,
don't
know
what
is
going
to
happen
in
the
future,,
so
we
have
to
keep
watching
as
I.
Tell
them,
don't
give
up
on
your
dreams,,
don't
give
up
on
your
wishes.
Because.
We
don't
know
what's
going
to
come
in
the
future,
and
we
have
to
wait
for
faith
and
hope
and
transmit
that
to
them,
because
they're
going
to
be
professionals
anyway
and
that's
what
they.
B
Of
action,
and
no
one
knows
well
You
know
what
is
coming
in
the
future,.
We
still
have
it,
I
always
have
faith,.
The
last
thing
you
lose
is
faith,
candle,,
and
then
that
is
what
you
have
to
maintain,,
and
these
children
who
have
the
desire
to
excel
should
do
it,.
It's
not
bad
until
the
end.
end
as
much
as
possible
and.
A
B
B
Options
that
the
boys
have
to
look
for,
you
have
to
have
good
grades,
that
they
have
to
study
a
lot.
But
apart
from
that,
they
have
options.
There
are
paths
and
it
doesn't
matter
if,
in
the
end,
you
can't
work
here.
Who
knows
you
can
go
to
work
somewhere
else
and
really
teach
everything
you
know
be.
So
no
should
not
should
not
rest
and.
A
B
You
another
example,.
There
have
been
young
people
who
start
their
journey,.
They
know
that
later
they
will
not
be
able
to
work,,
but
in
that,
in
that,
and
in
life,
they
marry
someone
who
is
an
American
citizen,
and
there
is
another
alternative,
perhaps
to
obtain
long-term
documents,
but
they
are
options
that
they
have,.
So
one
can
never
let
see
the
path
and
say
I'm
not
going
to
follow
it
because
I
don't
know
what
comes
from
which
no
one
knows
what
comes.
A
A
We
are
now
going
to
talk
about
another
case,.
It
is
also
the
case
of
the
school,
true
of
the
boys,,
but
now
there
are
other,
sadly,
common,
cases,
Waleska,.
It
is
the
case
of
women.
Victims
of
domestic
violence,
who
are
not
They,
are
only
abused
in
different
aspects
by
their
partner,,
but
part
of
the
abuse
is
that
they
feel
tied
down
because
they
do
not
have
documents
and
they
threaten
them.
Saying
I
am
going
to
take
away
your
children
or
I
am
going
to
sue
you
with
immigration,.
A
B
If
these
are
fairly
common
cases,
we
have
seen
them
a
lot.
There
are
two
sides,
and
there
are
people
who
are
legally
married
to
either
US
citizens
or
legal
permanent
residents
in
In.
These
cases,
people
have
to
know-
and
it
is
important
that
they
seek
help
number
one
because
they
have
to
get
out
of
the
It,
is
the
circle
of
domestic
violence
and
number
two,
because
there
are
benefits
approved
in
the
law
that
allow
these
people
to
obtain
their
documentation
without
having
to
depend
on
that
husband
or
that
wife,
because
it
can
be.
A
B
It
is
called
violence
against
women
sachs
of
the
law
to
protect
women
from
violence
in
the
home,
but,
as
I
told
you
apply
to
men
too,
and
that
is
a
special
visa
that
is
given
to
people
who
are
victims
of
domestic
violence
whose
father,
whose
partner
is
married
legally,
he
was
an
American
citizen
or
a
legal
permanent
resident.
Those
people
have
a
path
to
citizenship
without
having
to
depend
on
that
partner
who
hurt
them.
B
And
then
what
it
is,
the
water
that
is
sacred
violence
against
women,
that
particular
law
does
not
apply
to
it,
because
it
has
to
be
marriage.
Now
it
does
not
mean
that
there
has
not
been
a
crime
committed.
Domestic
violence
is
a
crime
so
that
person
can
report
that
aggressor
and
cooperate
with
the
authorities
in
that
process,
in
which
case
the
person
can
request
what
is
called
a
visa
and
that
the
visa
is
either
given
to
a
person
who
is
the
victim
of
a
crime
larissa
or
specifically
given
to
me
by
the
law.
B
It
is
not
any
crime
to
me.
It
is
111
crimes
that
are
specific
in
the
law
to
domestic
violence,
so
it
can
fall
into
that
category,
and
here
in
the
state
of
maryland,
there
is
not
a
crime
that
is
specific
to
domestic
violence,
but
if
there
is
assault
to
south
it
is,
in
the
second
degree
there
is
an
aspect
of
the
violence
that
does
fall
and
there
have
been
many
people
who
have
obtained
migratory
benefits
for
having
been
victims
of
one
of
these
crimes,.
B
We
do
not
wish
anyone
that
If,
you
are
a
victim
of
one
of
these
crimes
in
the
world,,
it
is
good,,
but
if
you
have
been-
and
you
feel
that
it
is
true
that
your
situation
has
been
described,,
what
we
have
talked
about,
here,
you
have
to
seek
help,,
do
not
be
afraid
to
go
to
the
police.
The
The
police
are
there
to
defend
you.
In.
These
cases,
people
call,
and
there
is
already
a
protocol
established
to
deal
with
these
cases
and
these
people,
once
you
cooperate
with
the
authorities,,
then
request
a
visa
and.
A
B
B
Therefore,
after
you
obtain
the
status
and
you
can,
as
in
immigration,
they
say,
adjust
your
status
to
legal
permanent
resident
and
then
become
a
citizen.
Therefore
it
does
not
go
for
you
to
ask
if
you
have
questions,,
we
are
at
the
help
center
to
evaluate
these
cases
and
believe
me,.
Many
of
the
cases
that
I
receive
there
are
people
who
do
not
or
do
they
know
if
they
would
qualify
for
this
needle
visa
because
they
have
been
victims
of
domestic
violence
and
we
have
seen
much
more.
B
Sadly,
sadly,
there
are
many
cases,
so
don't
be
afraid.
No
couple
can
tell
you
that
they
are
going
to
take
away
your
children
or
that
they
are
going
to
call
you
to
immigration,
because
you
were
right
because
you
want
to
report
domestic
violence,
call
the
police
and
they
will
help
guide
you
on
the
road
run.
B
Violence,,
we
see
them
on
the
skin,,
but
the
scars
of
emotional
violence
have
to
be
looked
for
a
little
more,,
but
if
it
is
possible
to
try
it,
so
do
not
be
afraid,,
do
not
be
afraid
that
they
will
call
me
at
my
office.
If.
There
are
cases
like
this,.
We
immediately
attend
to
them,
because
I
know
that
many
non-
profit
organizations
have
to
wait
for
their
turn.
r.
A
lot
I
take
care
of
them
and
if
it
is
necessary
to
refer
them,,
let's
say
to
receive
psychological
services,
service.
You
have
to
go.
A
A
B
A
crime
the
same,
and
that
is
why
we
have
many
circumstances
in
What.
The
couple
says
is
that
I
don't
want
to
call
the
police,
because
I
know
they
are
going
to
deport
you,,
but
you
have
to
think
about
your
physical
well-being,,
your
emotional
well-being,,
that
of
your
family,,
that
of
your
children,,
and
for
that
there
is
help
for
that..
It
helps
that
the
person
has
some
documents
does
not
change
the
nature
of
the
criminal.
B
A
A
A
B
Certainly,
the
climate
right
now
is
not
the
most
favorable
to
number
one
I
tell
people
who
have
relatives
outside
the
US
that
they
are
Thinking
of
crossing
the
border
now
that
they
don't,.
This
is
not
the
time
unless
he
is
really
fighting
for
his
life,
running
from
nothing
and
trying
to
save
himself.
In
your
life.
There
are
some
methods
for
that,
but,
as
a
general
rule,
I
want
to
move
I
want
to
meet
my
family.
It
is
a
new
historical
and
positive
moment
to
do
it.
B
No,
it
is
not
the
time
now
those
people
who
are
already
here
and
who
have
been
here
for
a
number
of
years.
What
is
important
It
is
that
each
case
is
different
and
we
cannot
say
that
there
are
two
identical
cases,
because
there
are
not
many
times.
People
sit
down
with
me
and
tell
me
that
my
neighbor
suffered
exactly
the
same
thing.
That.
B
B
So
it
is
important
that
you
seek
guidance,
as
I
tell
you,.
We
are
at
the
free
help
center
once
a
month
in
my
office
you
can
call
and
we
will
make
the
consultation
or
with
whom
you
really
understand
a
lawyer,
preferably
can
guide.
But
look
for
that
guidance
because
you
D
does
not
know
what
is
particular
about
his
case.
That.
B
Perhaps
it
has
some
benefit
that
you
do
not
know
about
in
terms
of
approval
of
some
immigration
reform,
as
everyone
would
like
it.
Perhaps
it
is
not
the
best
moment
in
political
terms.
We
do
not
see
it
going
to.
There
may
be
some
outcome
like
the
one
we
are
waiting
for,
but
I
come
back
and
say
we
don't
know.
B
Future
for
everyone,
so
you
have
to
keep
an
eye
out
very
important,
very
important
so
that
you
don't
lose
what
you
may
have
and
make
sure
you
don't
commit
crimes
of
no
10.
Well,
this
The,
most
famous
ones
in
the
area,
as
I
tell
you,
those
in
Uruguay,
driving,
drunk
and
driving
without
a
license,
are
cases
that
can
put
you
in
deportation
proceedings.
When
perhaps
you
were
not
at
the
time,,
so
be
very
careful
in
your
daily
behavior.
As.
B
We
say,
don't
get
into
trouble,
so
they
don't
come
looking
for
you,
but
always
stay
true
within
the
law,.
Do
your
taxes,
do
what
you
have
to
cer
and
let's
wait
to
see
that
there
is
perhaps
some
change,,
but
in
the
meantime
you
can
go
looking
for
guidance
for
yourself
to
know
what
benefits
you
may
have
in
the
long
term,
for
example,.
There
are
people
who
came
to
the
US
many
years
ago
with
a
visa,.
B
A
B
Clear
thanks
to
the
entire
non-
Spanish-speaking
Hispanic
community,
to
all
immigrant
people
in
this
number
1
country
do
not
lose
hope,
and
this
is
not
over.
There
are
many
organizations.
There
is
a
lot
of
struggle
that
is
taking
place
for
look
for
the
best
benefits.
The
most
important
thing,
as
I
told
you
a
few
minutes
ago.
Look
for
guidance,
look
for
guidance
in
the
right
place.
There
are
non-
profit
organizations
that
have
lawyers.
We
are
the
private
lawyers
in
the
help
center.
B
We
are
also
giving
you
the
consultation,
be
very
careful
with
the
notaries
here
and
here
in
the
usa.
A
lot
is
given
to
people
who
are
notaries,
that
people
understand
that
those
who
are
notaries
are
lawyers.
They
are
not
in
the
usa
that
you
do
not
have
to
be
a
lawyer
to
be
a
notary
and
they
give
legal
guidance
or
fill
out
documents
that
they
do
not
know
the
legal
repercussions
that
they
can
have
and
then
cause
problems
for
their
clients
and,
in
the
end
the
client
loses
his
benefits
and
is
left
with
nothing.
B
So
it
is
important
that
you
look
for
a
licensed
attorney
licensed
in
any
state
of
the
usa,
in
the
district
of
colombia
or
in
puerto
rico.
In
my
case,
I
have
the
license
of
puerto
rico,
and
the
district
of
Colombia
and
put
that
license.
I
can
work
in
all
the
United
States
doing
immigration.
This
question
do
not
be
afraid
to
go
to
your
lawyer
and
tell
him
where
your
diploma
is
show
measure
nowadays
of
google
and
of
course
you
can
look
it
up.
B
Search
the
internet,
ask
your
lawyer,
don't
be
afraid:
I
love
it
when
my
clients
ask
me
and
that
diploma,
that
is
there
that
I
explain
to
you,
because
it
is
our
obligation
as
lawyers
to
be
very
careful
who
you
orient
yourself
with.
If
you
don't,
you
are
satisfied,
you
sought
a
second
opinion.
This
is
like
doctors,
see
drive
because,
unfortunately,
sometimes
we
cannot
answer
what
you
want
to
those
unfortunates.
They
cannot,
but
we
will
gladly
guide
you.
