Immigration Story: Birchwood Inn (New Hampshire)

UK immigrants and business partners, Andrew Cook and Nick Finnis, have devoted the last 11 years to building a successful business at their charming bed and breakfast in Temple, New Hampshire. Despite navigating the complicated steps for their visas, their future immigration status and the life they’ve built in New Hampshire is left uncertain. This short film illustrates how Mr. Cook and Mr. Finnis have become integral pieces of the Temple, New Hampshire community and strengthened the town through the presence of their business -- a dynamic found amongst countless other communities across the United States.

You know it's really sad that there are millions of us out there that need an immigration reform and here is a guy putting his own money trying to help us and look at the number of people that subscribed and liked his channel and videos... Is that the reason we've stuck in this situation for decades? Time to wake up!!!

Are they still here?

Yes! Still here and still same problem. And still great food and lodging.

No. They finally gave up and moved to Canada.
