IN an inspiring journey of perseverance and hope, Citizen Pinoy shares the remarkable story of a family’s quest to achieve the American Dream. This episode highlights how a son, through dedication and love, repaid his parents’ sacrifices by helping them secure their future in the United States.
However, this path was fraught with challenges. The family’s initial attempt at an employment-based petition was denied due to the employer’s inability to pay. This led to the family being placed in removal proceedings, creating a daunting and uncertain future. Despite these setbacks, their resilience and faith carried them through.
Leading U.S. Immigration Attorney Michael J. Gurfinkel prepared a long-term strategy for Julius and Amelita’s green cards that involved long-term planning and dedication. It required son Nikko to obtain his green card and U.S. citizenship through marriage to his girlfriend, Joyce. Upon Nikko’s naturalization, he was able to petition for his parents, culminating in his parents receiving their green cards.

Julius and Amelita’s journey to legalization spanned 15 years and the use of the three P’s: Planning, patience, and prayer. They also had the strategic planning of the Law Offices of Michael Gurfinkel. But with unwavering patience, and steadfast prayer, Julius and Amelita’s dream has finally been realized.
