The Cuban influencer Ariagna González, known on social media as La Damosky, shared with her followers her experience upon entering the United States through Miami International Airport following a trip to the Dominican Republic, dispelling rumors that have been circulating about supposed restrictions for permanent residents.
In a video posted on her TikTok account, the popular content creator reported that the entry process was completely normal and that she faced no obstacles for having traveled to the Caribbean country.
“I just passed through Miami immigration and I have to say, to those people who are spreading fear, to travel, because I come from the Dominican Republic and everything went smoothly, they didn’t ask me anything at all,” stated La Damosky.
The influencer criticized the alarmist messages claiming that permanent residents in the United States cannot travel to the Dominican Republic or that they risk losing their immigration status.
“What they say about permanent residents not being able to travel to the Dominican Republic, that they can't leave, that's a lie. I just entered with my residency from the United States, so don't instill more fear. That's a lie. If you are legal in this country, you can travel wherever you want,” he emphasized.
La Damosky's statement comes at a time when many Cuban migrants are facing misinformation on social media and community forums regarding their rights as residents in the United States, especially concerning international travel.
The video has generated mixed reactions, with some users expressing gratitude for the information while others point out that each immigration case is different and depends on multiple factors.
