Sumario:The human migrations are a mirror of movements between border, so by their nature are dynamic, changing and more sensitive than the forecasts themselves; such is the case of Haitians in Mexico. Suddenly we are face to face with a new and uncertain migratory scenario “Haitians on the Mexican border”, migrants who see Mexico as a transit country; but which sometimes remain longer time than anticipated. A reflect of this is, the National Migration Institute of México has registered between May-November 2016 to 17 thousand Haitians in the border cities of Tijuana and Mexicali, none requested refuge in Mexico, however, if they have requested it United States of America (USA). The International Migration Observatory of the National Population Council had provided evidence of the phenomenon, since in its data recorded that they went from 199 requests of refuge to USA in 2010 to almost five thousand in 2015. The core goal of this paper is to give account of this new scenario migration through a documentary review.
