This article focuses on the profile and satisfaction level of the migration project of the Venezuelan community that arrived in Spain between 1998 and 2015. The empirical analysis of a survey conducted to 383 Venezuelans illustrates the expulsion factors that activated emigration, the achievement of the expectations, and the integration in the country of destination, focusing on the theory of social reproduction as an emigration strategy. This first stage of migration marks the slow reaction of Spanish authorities to the arrival of a significant number of migrants as of 2016.
