This article reflects from the dimensions of waiting and hope on the Venezuelan population residing in Chile, highlighting the awareness of the possibilities in relation to the future in a spacetime context of uncertainty. From both structural and subjective processes, since migrants are bearers of meaning and producers of signifiers about their own country, Chile and the world, aware of themselves in the face of a society that does not give them clear recognition during the years 2020 to 2022, after being well received in a pre-pandemic context. Based on 30 in-depth interviews with men and women who have been residing in Chile for more than 5 years, we analytically propose that in waiting and hoping one can observe the complex, changing and unconsolidated nature of rootedness within a social and economic regime. based on asymmetries, so Chile can be a destination, but also only a transit country due to the weakening of future possibilities.

Palabras llave : Venezuelan immigrants; waiting; hope; settling down; future.
