This is the inspiring story of Ana (3rd from left), a busy hotel executive, who petitioned her Tita Susan (2nd from left) to help at home as a housekeeper. This decision, inspired by the long-running immigration show, allowed Ana to balance her career and family life while increasing her earning potential. Four years after Tita Susan’s move to the U.S., Ana once again sought leading U.S. Immigration Attorney Michael J. Gurfinkel’s (right) help to bring over Susan’s husband, Tito Nelson (left), as a Follow-To-Join (FTJ) under Ana’s petition of her Tita. Nelson arrived in September 2024, showing how employment petitions of family members can transform lives and fulfill dreams.
