Immigration Crisis in Mexico Part 2! United States Embassy Advisory Issued! What you need to know!

I recently did a video on the immigration crisis in Mexico which caused some controversy and raised a lot of questions, today I am going to answer some of your questions and dispel some misconception people may have about the Mexican Law,.

First, I will be presenting a very important advisory issued by the United States Embassy in Mexico through their Emergency Alert Information system on their website. So what does this advisory mean? This guidance has been issued reminding United States Citizens concerning their responsibilities and confirms that Mexico is serious in expecting United States Citizens to comply with immigration ID requirements.

This advisory should clarify some of the questions you may have about carrying your original documents with you at all times.

Immigration Crisis in Mexico. What it means for Expats and foreigners living in and visiting Mexico!

I did a previous video about immigration crackdowns and explained why these crackdowns were taking place and what it means for expats and visitors. That was only the start of what has become a full out immigration crisis here in Mexico. I am going to elaborate on this crisis and discuss what this means for foreigner’s here in Mexico. The immigration rules have changed and immigration isn’t budging!

What is going on? Why has immigration become so strict. Why are Americans and Canadians being deported on a daily basis? Why are people only being given 7 days when they run to border for another 180 day FMM or even worse denied entry? Why won’t immigration accept copies of my residency card, passport or FMM anymore?

I hope to answer this question in this video but bottom line, Mexico is experiencing a major immigration crisis that is getting worse by the minute. Unfortunately Expats and tourist are getting caught up in Mexico’s efforts to get the situation under control.

Mexican Immigration Residency financial requirements have gone down! Misconceptions explained!

There has been some confusion lately about the financial requirements for temporary and permanent residency. Several well-known blogs have published articles that the financial requirements for residency have changed and been lowered for 2021. This is partly true but not really. The reason for these articles is because Immigration adopted a new formula for calculating financial requirements. This new formula is called the UMA formula.

This has caused a lot of confusion and misconceptions leading people to believe that they now qualify for residency when in fact they may not. So, what does this mean for those applying for residency? Do I now qualify when I didn’t before? What are the misconceptions?

Well, I’m going to try and answer these questions in this video using temporary residency requirements as an example.

Healthcare in Mexico. Living in Mexico with Medicare. Is it possible?

Today I am going to continue to focus on health care. When I started this series on healthcare in Mexico, I stated that Medicare does not cover healthcare in Mexico. That is true but there are some limited options that do exist for those on Medicare. Actually a viewer reached out to me and made me aware of these options. This viewer has even used one of these options to have surgery here in Mexico. Although limited, they may be a solution for you and I felt it a disservice not to inform my viewers.

Now where doe that leave those Americans that want to move or travel in Mexico and that are on Medicare? Well, as I said earlier Medicare will not cover you in Mexico. Now with that being said you do have some options, although limited, which I will discuss.

Public Healthcare in Mexico part 3 of 3. Public healthcare and options for foreigners explained.

Today is part 3 of a 3 part series on healthcare in Mexico. In this part of the series, I am going to discuss the public healthcare system and options offered by the public healthcare system here in Mexico for foreigners.

Now the big question is what type of public healthcare is available to foreigners living in Mexico and what are the requirements. Before I go into detail on what is available, I must state that these coverages are only available to foreigners that hold either Temporary Residency or Permeant Residency. They are not available to individuals living here on a tourist FMM.

This video will cover what type of public healthcare is available for foreigners living in Mexico and discuss the requirements to qualify as well as the limitations of each.
