My cousin Jorge

The Obama administration has smartly lifted travel restrictions to Cuba. Now any extended family member can visit the island.

I very much want to visit Cuba before it becomes America's next big tourist destination. This new rule reminds me of the M*A*S*H episode where the new officer's club allows in relatives of officers. Hawkeye claims to be related to all of the enlisted men, "Radar, who is like a son to me. Klinger, who is like the daughter I never wanted..."

Given that it would be next to impossible to verify one's relatives in Cuba can I claim to have a cousin Jorge I'm going to visit?
