Have you applied for refugee status in Mexico, but are not sure of a positive result? Are you waiting too long for an interview at COMAR? Need to leave Mexico but don't want to lose your chance to become a resident?
There is one simple solution: change your status as a visitor for humanitarian reasons to the status of a temporary resident of Mexico. The procedure is completely legal and is listed in the catalog of migration procedures carried out by the National Institute of Migration of Mexico (INM).
You already have legal status in Mexico (visitor for humanitarian reasons). To change it to something else, you must have a reason. One of these grounds is an invitation to work from a Mexican company.
Key question — where to find a Mexican employer who will agree to draw up an invitation to the migration service? We can help with this. We will select an employer, prepare all the necessary documents and accompany you to submit documentation and purchase a resident card to the migration service. The whole process will only take a few days. It is not necessary to withdraw your refugee status request from COMAR. You will receive a temporary resident card for 4 years immediately.
Once you receive the card, you will be able to move freely around Mexico, leaving and entering the country as much as you want, and without a return ticket. You have the opportunity to be absent from Mexico for any period during the validity period of the card. You can get an RFC tax number and open an account in any bank. You already have the right to work and are able to start your own business in Mexico. After 4 years you will be able to obtain a permanent resident card.
From the moment you purchase a resident card, the countdown to acquiring Mexican citizenship will begin; this is 5 years. The length of time you lived in Mexico as a visitor is not included in the total period before you become a Mexican citizen.
We work in the state of Quintana Roo.
What about family members? First, one of the spouses receives a resident card, then the rest of the family members (the second spouse, their minor children and the parents of the spouses) receive their cards upon reunification. To do this, they need to have a marriage or birth certificate with an apostille.
