@briannafication: we literally thought he would never return again. we were so hopeless at times, just accepting defeat and the fact that my dad would never get his green card. my dad was the oldest brother, leaving mexico at 19 to work for his family, since my grandpa passed away when my dad was 15. the first person he hugged was my tia lucy, his older sister who they both took care of their 5 younger siblings together. my dad hasn’t seen his youngest sister since she was a toddler. it was so emotional and our family surprised my dad with a mariachi to welcome him back home. #immigrantparents #fyp #parati #mexico #reunion #reencuentro #reencuentrofamiliar #immigrant #mexicantiktok #🇲🇽

When the legal way takes 36 years the system is broken.

sarah lynn :

I finally got to claim my parents when I turned 21, my dad never got to say goodbye to his mom and my mom never got to say bye to her dad. after almost 22 years they got their green card ❤️

As you can see, no one wants to leave their family and land. They do it in order to survive.

Hoping one day my dad gets his green card for him to reunite w everybody ☹️

36 years of bureaucracy and paperwork kept this man from his loved ones. If anyone thinks the immigration system works they’re delusional. What a beautiful reunion 💖

Glad he was able to hug his mother, can't say the same for my parents 😭😭😭

People don’t understand those who come here have to be the strongest because how do you survive without the love and embrace of your own. Very happy for your papi. ♥️
