The word these days is that they are cracking down on "permanent tourists", then again, I hear they stopped that because it was costing the country money. I'd love to live in Mexico, and you're right, looking online, it always seems impossible, even with a retirement visa, because I don't have enough income, only social security. I can't afford to hire a lawyer, not even a Mexican lawyer. All I can do is get there and try to do border runs. My friend lived there for 7 years on border runs, but she lives in Baja, which is a completely different story. Even at that, the American PayPal closed down her account because they said she was living in Mexico, and tied up all her money. It was horrible, and she almost got evicted from her rental in MX. Then the next time she tried to do a border run, they wouldn't let her back in. Remember, all her possessions were in MX, so she went to immigration there at the border, and was allowed a 14-day visa to go retrieve her possessions. So now she is living "illegally" in Mexico, because she can't leave or they won't let her back in. It's not as simple as you say it is.
Thanks for sharing! You are correct in certain situations things can get very difficult. That is why one must integrate into Mexico further otherwise risk things like what happened with PayPal. Also the border run story sounds a bit fishy seems like there are some holes in that story because immigration will not deny you entry over whatever happened with PayPal or the rental she was in. Again who really knows what happened but even so you basically proved what I was saying as correct. Thanks again for sharing I hope you and your friend are able to find a solution to your problems
Not sure if it still exist. But there is regularization program that will give you a temporary resident visa for 4 years. You need to have at least one entry between 2019 and 2021 If I remember correctly.
Bottom line, to live in Mexico permanently you will need a good consistent income as long as you live there, even if you don't have residency.
I think that is true for anywhere you choose to live on the planet
Of course!! Why do you think that we moved from our “Paradise”? Because the income (back them, 35 yrs ago) wasn’t steady, but bills were!! Most of us move to USA looking for a better Life opportunity…now I’m in the position of coming back in a different and better situation 🙏💕🙏
GOOD INFO ....
RAM truck is back on the road !
You got that right! Lets Go!
Woof woof great info
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
WOW! Thank you so very much brother! Truly appreciate it! Saludos Amigo!
Hi Jose. Another great video. I laughed when you mentioned freedom and comfort because I feel very comfortable here, it's funny because Mexico is not my favourite country, Thailand is. I just never felt like I fit in in Thailand, whereas Mexico I fit right in straight away. You either love it here or you don't. I will work on getting my temp residency but for now I'll need to do one or two more exits. I don't want to leave, I'm quite happy to stay here forever.
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Sounds good. Can you tell me with the exit and re-entry - is there a time you must spend out of Mexico? i.e. could you literally drive across the border and go back the same day? The next day? A week later? etc.
Feel much better now with your info. I decided to pause on temporary visa and w this info I'm more confident about the decision. Many people warned us thag renting on a tourist visa would be difficult. We found that untrue with some 👢 on the ground and connection a local to expedite the convo. This is in ciudad de QRO.
Glad the video was so helpful!
I love when "El Ramo" (front of your truck) lifts up real high when you hit a speed barrier, lol. I so enjoy these rides thru Merida! TY Jose!
Awesome! Glad you enjoy the rides! Saludos!
I can tell Jose was polishing the horns...Lambo a tad jealous lately....😄
Thanks Jose. You're the best. Your information is phenomenal. I am truly grateful for the information you provided. 🤗😊
Glad it was so helpful!
Jose thank u for the video buddy and the information
Glad it was helpful!
That was good information Jose thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I have a question, Jose. My wife came to America from Mexico at 14. I got her legal and now she has dual residency. We have been married for 35 years, and she goes back almost every year. We have supported and helped her hard-working family not only survive, but strive - college, homes, etc. We are moving to Mexico in 3 years. How can I gain dual citizenship? I will never give up my American Citizenship!, just like she refused to give up her Mexican citizenship. LOL. Great video. Thanks.
Great question! For you it is easy! All you need to do is provide proof to Mexican Immigration you guys are married and you will get your Temporary or Permanent Residency Visa which you must hold for a set amount of time and then you can apply and get your citizenship no problem! Also all your kids also have automatic Mexican Citizenship they just need to do the proper paperwork to get it. Good luck with everything!
@@JoseArteagaTravels Ok, she will surely know how to get it done. She is used to red tape, she's a banker. LOL. Thanks Jose!!!
I am preparing to move
Awesome! Good luck!
You really inspire me. I am moving to Cancun in October.
Awesome! Good luck with everything!
Don't quote me but i think the maximum overstay fine is 6000 pesos 😊😊 you need a passport to get a telmex acct 🎉🎉
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! That fine sounds like if you overstayed for several years! Also I got my internet account without any ID just cash
@@JoseArteagaTravels I suppose if i would have pushed it and said i didn't have a passport they would have connected the internet 😆 but they asked 👌 cash is king 😆
I apologize in advance because I am just starting to watch this one, and perhaps you will cover it in the video, but what if something goes down in the country where you currently reside (usa) and you want to get out? I don't think you can leave or another country will not accept you without proper paperwork, i.e. residency or citizenship.
Just curious.
Great question! If you are worried about things only getting worse in your home country then That is why you must leave asap before it gets to the point where you wont be able to leave no matter how much you try
@@JoseArteagaTravels Yeah, man. I just got my temporary residency permit and have to come down for my canje in a few months. I am of the age that I can't do visa runs every 180 days after I retire. The u.s. has softened me a bit over the years!
Love your work, brother.
So much good info. Thank you! The violin killed me. 😂
Glad it was helpful and enjoyed the content!
What’s your opinion on the super peso?
Great question! I've actually made many videos on the subject here is my latest one ua-cam.com/users/livePAzO3MPSwUc?feature=share
Hello Jose
Great content
How can you be contacted directly??
Muchas Gracias! You can find my email on my website www.josearteaga.com/
Do most gas stations around your town sell diesel fuel.
I never noticed Diesel at the local gas station
@@JoseArteagaTravels That’s not good.
Thank you for the information. I'm in Merida and I want to get legal help before going to immigration. Does Jose Novelo offer assistance? Thanks
Yes he does. He is a Lawyer. You should reach out to him if you need any assistance
You know what would be easy for people to become residents and citizens in Mexico if you have both parents who are born in Mexico and you’ll be able to receive dual citizenship in consulado Mexico 🇲🇽 just have to follow those requirements documents of birth certificate both parents and your birth certificate it takes long for them to accept your appointment and it mights takes 4 months for them to give you a open appointment in consultations Mexico
Thanks for sharing!
@@JoseArteagaTravels no problem besides I have a house in Jalisco Mexico but it’s in a small town called Quitupan Jalisco Mexico 🇲🇽
Ya casi estoy listo para mis chilaquiles! 😂😂
Que bueno!
My expired American drivers license worked as ID for years. I finally made it back to the US for an update. 😂
That is awesome! 😅 Thanks for sharing!
When are you doing your 15K Subscribers Special?
Hopefully soon! We are getting close! Maybe in a week or two!
Hey Jose hola, let's say i find love and get married to a mexican citizen....how long do you have to be married to actually get residency? What if you fall out of love and get a divorce after 6 months....are you still a resident for life? Muchas Gracias
You can get Married today and go to immigration tomorrow and get your temporary residency. Once you have your residency you can divorce and you will have your residency. Not sure how it would work once you gotta renew it or go for Permanent residency. I got married, got my temp right away, waited 2 years, got my Permanent and about to go for my Mexican Citizenship sometime this year or the next at the latest. But fyi you need to be in Mexico at least 5 years before you can apply for Citizenship. Thats why I am only a Permanent resident. Yes I have been here over 5 years so I can go anytime, just haven't gotten around to it yet. Hope that helps answer your question.
Thanks a lot mi amigo,,,,are you going to have dual citizenship or will you give up your U.S. citizenship? As long as you are there for 4 years with a temporary visa you just exchange it for a permanent visa....I would never need citizenship....I will be back in Baja in September this year....wish I could come see you in Merida.....I will be 65 in exactly 1 year and I would qualify on income anyway@@JoseArteagaTravels
Mexico is a very nice country.
I totally agree!
Hey Jose, just curious if you get mean comments on this type of content. My content isn't all " moving to mexico" but when I do create these videos, I get a few of "gentrification", "whitewashing" and "gringa" comments. Just curious how you avoid that. TIA ☺
I get TONS of Negative comments all the time. More so on Facebook. The best way to combat them is to just troll them right back. Either with better information, or a funny snarky comment that wont insult but instead force them to reflect or simply not respond. Or in the case of really nasty inappropriate comments I just delete them. But yeah if you Troll the Trolls you see how quickly they get bored and walk away. They just want negative confrontation, dont give them what they want, give them what the audience wants.... a funny response from you. Hope this info helps! Good luck with your channel! 😅
@@JoseArteagaTravels thank you so much ☺️
I’ve never seen this channel 😂
No way Jose!
Did you have to get temporary residency or went right to permanent residency because of marriage?
Temporary first then Permanent
Hi Jose! Thanks for the wealth of info! I am curious - does all this to apply to, say, Queretaro as well? Or is there more government/police presence over there? Just like you, I value freedom without harassment from others, but unlike you, I would die in that kind of climate 😂. Also, would all this be doable if I wanted to drive my Subaru Forester + a very small trailer for just a little more cargo space for my belongings?
Everything I said pertains to ALL of Mexico. So no worries there! As for more info on driving out here you should check out my channel I got plenty of videos talking about that and even interviewing people who made the drive!
@@JoseArteagaTravels That's great! I'll definitely search for those videos. Thanks for taking the time to reply!
I have been trying to make an appointment at the consulate for over a month for a temporary visa,and I still can't get an appointment.
Try different consulates for better results
Probably a lot of Americans applying. Try the largest consulate you are near, call and try online. Online is probably most viable. imho. I used the consulate in Houston, TX.
1st!!!!!
Hola! 😎
Married? lol. Some of us are trying to escape the bs. but for real there are some really good women out here.
It's not for everyone! Thanks for sharing!
Who hurt you ?
@@itiiyt I'm fine. Check American dating and divorce stats and how many cat ladies there are.
@@itiiyt Nobody but it's mentally ill to get married in the US or Canada if you are a man with any means.
@@frankkluz9787 then she's really mentally ill. Her money is hiding it.
So do you keep renewing your tourist visa?
I don't anymore because I got permanent residency but many people do this all the time since it is the only way for them to have legal status in the country.
@@JoseArteagaTravels guess I should have worded it differently I meant so I can just keep renewing my tourist visa and there is no limit on how many times can or do they make u get a residency after so long?
And thanks for the videos I watch them all the time
Yup just like I mentioned in the video
¿Will I get temporary residency if I show immigration I bought a house in México?
Not that I know of but I'm sure it will only improve your chances to obtain residency since you bought a home in Mexico it signals to them you want to live or do business here or both which is a good thing in their eyes
Thd house needs to be worth over 400k dollars per applicant order to be taken into consideration for temp residency
What is required to drive a semi truck in Mexico?
Great question! I'm sure you would at the very least need a work visa and valid Mexican trucking license. Not sure though. Great topic for me to research and answer in a future live stream. For more information please visit my website josearteaga.com
@@JoseArteagaTravels ya. I wonder what the requirements are? I wonder if it's like America with the stupid physical to maintain? Are there weigh stations (creeper cops) there?
Hey i would like a consultation. Where could i go? And how much? Thanks

What are you talking about? LOL The majority of people who enter Mexico legally enter with a tourist Visa. Thanks for trolling and helping out the algorithm
@@JoseArteagaTravels I have spent my winters in Puerto Vallarta for the past 8 years on a visitors visa
You’re clueless
It’s called a Forma Migración Multiple form
