Hi.. Thanks for reading this, I appreciate it..
Im desperate… …For the first time of my life, i saw my father sobbed
My family immigrated to U.S.A from China 4 years ago, and we are legal residents. My parents own a real estate in China, and it was leased to somebody for 400,000RMB per year. thats basically their life property and a source of majority of their earnings. However, a district my city is doing a street renovation, and they are widening the street which that house is on. The district government OFFICIAL told my parents that they will have to remove the house and offer my parents 100,000RMB. as compensation. My parents refuse to accept the money because that’s just simply unfair. The government WILL remove that house by force if we are persistent. My parents try to sue them, but the court in my city claims they do not accept such lawsuits (in fact, the court is under the control of the district government) they try to sue it to a bigger court, but that court just pass down the lawsuit to the local court which dont accept. My parents worked diligently and their hard workings for over 20 years eventually turn into that house which is about to be removed. if that is removed i dont think we can still make a living.
The deed and all the document things for that house my parents still possess.
Here are my concerns:
1. How can the fact that we are american residents help us in this situation? (Like does U.S protect overseas properties of their residents?)
2. What should my family do?
3. Who should we get help from?
all kinds of advices with good intentions are welcomed
Thank you for reading this, please provide me any related information possible.
