How long does the Temporary Residency process take?

It varies depending on the consulate and INM, but most cases are completed in a few weeks once started.

Can I work in Mexico with a Temporary Resident card?

You may work only if you obtain the corresponding Work Permit from the INM.

Do you offer remote assistance?

Yes. Many steps can be handled digitally, and we guide you through the entire process.

Is this legal representation?

We provide immigration advisory and assistance based on official requirements published by the INM and Mexican authorities. We do not offer legal defense services.
