I don't think it's just that: I suppose the real reason is an attempt to establish greater oversight, but it's coming at a cost of greatly slowing...
Sorry, Tracey, as I feel a neck wringing is not far away! It's hard to retell an event, and I realize you were giving us the second hand...
Not unless you want to.... There's nothing he can do about the fact that the cards, once approved locally, must come through/from Mexico City.
There is so much room for misunderstanding in these types of encounters: whether she entered as a tourist, or entered to work, she was going to...
I've said it before, I believe a good many of the screw ups and delays that plague people who are trying to get permission to work, or renew...
After two years in my new status I could apply for citizenship, using provisions in Mexican Law similar to the ones I used to apply for P.R. to...
Why bother? I think I've mentioned this before, but about two years ago when I began to understand how the immigration process could be...
To whatever time it used to take, add 4 weeks for it to come back from Mexico City, as all cards are now issued there.
So glad it ended well, finally. This is a good example of misinformation all around. It´s true she didn´t need a visa to enter, she needed one...

Permanent Residency, at last! Well now, I can at least be one person who has reported getting his permanent residency card: I picked mine up,...
Well, now the opportunity to check the lists has passed, as they are no longer using that system. Instead, you must get in line outside, and they...
For the 7,500 peso figure, some people may think you'll be able to find a two bedroom, furnished place, a short walk from the Ceviche. What...
45% of what? Be a little more specific about the monthly rents being charged on places you've looked at and some readers will have experience...
It's natural that more posts with complaints will appear here than posts talking about how smoothly things went, but I'm surprised that no one has...
Yes, exactly right, Steve. We lived behind Office Depot, which is near the Ceviche and the entrance to the Hotel Zone: Home Depot is near neither,...
No one has reported getting the permanent residency card, in hand, on this forum. Steve looks to me to be the best positioned to be the first to...
Near the Ceviche is about as safe as it gets in the city. We lived just behind Home Depot for awhile, and it was quiet enough, and very convenient...
