Immigration is a bumpy road, especially for couples trying to navigate through it together. But one thing’s for sure: you shouldn’t let it consume you and take over your relationship, so don’t let your relationship take the backseat. In this week’s episode, Megan welcomes the first real-life couple who she has helped navigate love and immigration.

Quotes:
“Being under DACA, you're grateful for what you have, but at the same time, you're kind of ashamed a little bit. You don't want to tell people.”
“That's one thing that we tell anybody that we know that's going to be going through this - we tell them to pick a good lawyer, somebody who is going to be open and honest with you.”
“Be open, be flexible, and be patient, because it's a very long ride.”
“When you start at the beginning of the process, I think it's key to remember that you're on the same team.”
“Don't let your relationship take the backseat.”
