@@NewstateNomads Thank you so much for the warm welcome! 💜 We did a lot of research and quite honestly, were initially planning on moving to the Yucatan Peninsula but due to the year round heat, decided that wouldn't be best for us/ our little dogs as a long-term home base. I came across Queretaro and discovered it had a VERY appealing climate and was growing due to many companies choosing to relocate their businesses here from neighboring Mexico City. It is very centraly located, has great amenities, yet wasn't a city that we considered very overpopulated. We have been told by the locals that it is one of the "more expensive" cities when compared to other Mexican cities however, still affordable when it pertains to housing costs.

Great video. The only challenge I had two months ago in Los Angeles was the requirement on the bank paperwork (letter of verification and the statements), to have the "Bank Seal" on them. When one from the US sees that, most would automatically think of a circular bank emblem from a stamp. To make a long story short, it was just a stamp of the address of the bank, in my case, Bank of America. To make matters worse, originally I was under the impression it needed only to be on the letter of verification from the bank. When I brought all my bank statements, they indicated they wanted the stamp on the front of every bank statement. Fortunately, it was escalated to a manager who after a few minutes decided to approve me anyway, but it was a bit stressful at that moment after waiting a month for my appointment, having to schedule a follow-up 2 weeks later over this whole seal issue with a flight that was scheduled a couple of weeks after that, to have to worry about this seal. The consulate in LA really should tighten up their instructions and be specific about an address stamp versus a seal, but oh well :-). Also, at the consulate in LA, they showed me a picture of exactly how to fill out the immigration form on the plane. Unfortunately, their form was outdated and the fields with numbers didn't completely align with what the airline provided. That threw me for a loop and caused a bit of confusion at customs where the agent almost put 180 days when he needed to put 30 days. The good news is that I have my Temporary Visa as of last week :-).

Keith, that is so interesting! For Denver, there was no "seal" or stamp requirement, and I remember when emailing with the Austin consulate they had a requirement that you must login to the account in front of the agent to prove the amounts aligned with the copies you provided.

Retirees can show alternatively that they have pension/SS of a certain amount monthly, instead of the $25K minimum ongoing bank balance. The amount required is based on the current Mexican minimum wage; currently it comes to around $1945 USD/mo. for Temporary Resident or $3250 USD/mo. for Permanent. Did you point this out in your video? Because I got distracted and may have missed it. Same process applies with bringing bank statements for 12 months to *prove* this pension/SS is deposited in your name/account. Adding my *CONGRATULATIONS* !! Just to put a fine point on it: with this Residente Temporal Visa, you *are* allowed to cross the US Border by land into Mexico now with the Covid-19 restrictions??

Ann, apologies I guess my reply never posted? In a nutshell, first thanks so much for the great info! On our blog, we provide links to all the documents the Denver consulate sent us when we emailed with them before our appointment. Where did you find that info on SS/pension? Its so interesting the differences between the consulates, because if you check out the docs from Denver, they do not list accepting SS for temporary, only permanent. AND the amounts are different than what you mentioned, which we also found for income and investment amounts between different consulates. I hope someday to find out why there is so much variety with the requirements between Mexican consulates, maybe it's a regional cost of living? Regardless, thanks so much for watching, and I hope the info you provided is helpful to others considering temporary residency! -Howard

Jeremy, you're absolutely right about entering Baja or the "border zone" that runs the entire length of the US/Mexico line. You can enter without much hassle. 👍 The issue becomes if you want to travel PAST the border zone in Mainland Mexico. For that, you need a stamped FMM (visa document) and a TIP (temporary import permit) for your vehicle. Throughout the mainland, there are immigration checks that we went through and needed to present them to immigration authorities. They are SUPPOSED to be restricting issuing those to essential travel right now during Covid-19 at land crossings, but we personally know people who have gotten both at the border without fuss. Thanks for watching! -Howard

Got my visa in mid-October, and just did the canje procedure today in Guadalajara. Got there almost an hour early, so I was fairly close to the front of the line. I speak very little Spanish, but a couple of the agents there spoke some English so it was fairly painless. Longest wait was the hour prior to opening, and an hour between when I turned everything in and when I returned for fingerprints and photos. Then another 5-10 minute wait while they made my card. At least in Guadalajara, and I assume other locations, but I don't know which, they take the photos electronically, so you don't need the ones inm.gob.mx says you do. The long delays of days or weeks others have reported seem to also be a thing of the past, if you have all your paperwork in order. Oddly, I just noticed the issue date is 1 week ago. That I do not understand, unless maybe I started the form a week ago, but I don't think I did. Maybe they just clicked the wrong Wednesday.

@NewstateNomads
Жыл бұрын
Thanks and great questions! Yes, you can skip to Permanent, but the requirements are significantly higher for financials. Check a consulate website for specifics on Permanent requirements. Also, temporary allows you to still have a foreign (IE USA, etc) plated vehicle in Mexico. Permanent you are SUPPOSED to have Mexican plates and Mexican drivers license (but of course, that's based on enforcement or when you are pulled over). Many people opt for temporary since it provides very similar benefits and is good for up to four years (1 year initial, 3 year renewal). Regarding RT and RP applications, yes, all embassies and consulates process them, and you start the process outside of Mexico. Most nationalities can apply (I believe certain country residents have different processes for higher security and scrutiny). Hope that helps! 👍 -Howard

Definitely interesting the difference between flying and driving, right? It's been that way since March, and I still haven't really found a decisive reason why the countries care more about people driving than flying in. Since Baja is in the "free zone" like the border zone that runs all the way to Texas, I would THINK it is still business as usual (meaning, no temporary import permits required and more relaxed rules to make it easier for border cities to continue commerce). We're living in strange times! Thanks as always for watching, Tara! -Howard

I’m in Baja at the moment and while the official word is only essential travel. I have seen a lot of tourists. Mostly California plates on the RVs. However, every few weeks one side or the other decides to enforce the rules. Which is confusing and inconvenient. You are doing the right thing getting your residency that way you cannot be denied or hassled you have a legitimate reason to be here. Plus the bonus of not needing border runs.

Hi Patrick, as far as we are aware (and based on our personal experience) it should be one or the other, not BOTH. If you can prove income at a high enough level, that should be sufficient. You may want to check out our planning guide, which includes several documents that lay out the requirements as provided by the consulate. 👍 -Howard www.newstatenomads.com/mexico

No, believe it or not. Each person applies separately even if one is a dependent for application purposes, and requires a separate appointment (though we were processed at the same time even though we had back to back time slots). Even with that, it was still very straightforward and relatively quick to complete! 👍 -Howard

Hi there, are you applying at the Denver location? I ask because the appointment categories I noticed vary slightly between locations (Denver, the option you want is "Visa/Power of Attorney/Mexican Passport"). If you haven't already checked out our companion article, we do have more info on the application process, including sample applications, instructions provided directly from the Denver Consulate, etc. I also recall that they only release new appointments a few times a month. If you don't see the Visa option, it could mean there aren't any of that type of appointment available for any date in the future... -Howard www.newstatenomads.com/destinations/north-america/2020/mexican-temporary-residency-exactly-how-to-get-it-and-why-you-need-it/

you do not have to be a resident to buy property in Mexico, but no bank will take cash due to anti money laundering laws, unless you meant it's a bank transfer for the full amount of the purchase. depending where you buy the closing costs can be 10% and you may have to put the land into a trust. you should speak with a Reputable real estate person in whatever city you are looking at, it's not like buying property in the US. good luck.
