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 accelerate the process of obtaining citizenship. For a more typical schedule, and without looking it up again, I seem to recall things like- five years of P.R. to qualify for citizenship, or two years if married to a Mexican or having a Mexican child.... I had one year in FM2 when I applied for P.R. using the point system so, no, you don´t have to have four years. Those who can meet the tests for financial solvency can apply for P.R. with zero years in temporary residency, as another example.... __________________
I wonder, if the permission to work would also apply, if the change is from fm 3 rentista to permanent.
V, PR - Puerto Rico is all I know about PR. But you are an American and don't get to be a citizen or PR. What am I missing here?
funny, i was reading puerto rico too. and then reread as puerto rico. then dawned on me third or fourth time pr must be permanent resident.

I don't think Steve has said if he's gotten his back, yet: he applied just about four months ago, as I recall, so he may have some news on that front. ____________________
