Your personal legal guide for Cuban deportees rebuilding in Mexico
Thousands of Cuban deportees are abandoned without adequate support, resources or protection after Mexico accepts them from US deportation flights.
PatriaLink is a mobile-first app that delivers personalized legal roadmaps for Mexican residency, asylum, and work permits tailored to the unique circumstances of US-deported Cubans. It includes an AI advisor trained on Cuban cases, automated document generators for official Mexican forms, and direct matching to verified immigration attorneys. The platform tracks every application step with SMS reminders so users never miss a deadline while feeling culturally understood.
