Elena (Elika Portnoy) and Carlos (McCaleb Burnett) are in love and want to spend their lives together. But their dream of living together is shattered when Carlos’ visa expires, and he is deported to Mexico. To make things worse, Elena comes to know that Carlos won't be able to return to the US for several years due to the strict immigration laws.

Determined to live together, the couple comes up with an idea of faking a marriage, which is a federal offense, but their only option to stay together. They begin to search for the perfect partner who would be willing to marry them, but their numerous attempts are unsuccessful. However, they soon find a solution in a couple who are also dealing with immigration issues.

The couple, Betty (Ashley Wolfe) and Mike (Carlos Leon), agree to perform a fake "immigration tango" with Elena and Carlos to acquire citizenship. But as they begin to prepare for their fraudulent nuptials, things start to get complicated. Elena and Carlos’ love is put to the test as hidden feelings and infidelities begin to surface.
