Immigration support where you actually live
Puerto Vallarta hosts one of the largest American and Canadian communities in Mexico, and the local INM (immigration institute) office processes a correspondingly heavy load of residency cards, renewals and regularizations. Knowing how this specific office works — its appointment rhythms, its document preferences, its seasonal backlogs — is half the battle.
We accompany you to appointments, prepare files the way this delegation expects them, and coordinate the consulate stage abroad with the finalization here in Vallarta, so nothing expires between the two.
Frequently Asked Questions
Temporary residency, permanent residency, family unity, retirement income, work — the right route depends on your finances, family ties and plans. In a single consultation we can usually tell you which options you qualify for today and which need preparation.
Most first-time residencies begin at a Mexican consulate abroad, but there are important exceptions. Before booking any consulate appointment, it is worth confirming which path applies to you — choosing the wrong one costs months.
Some statuses include work authorization, some can add it, some never allow it. If earning income in Mexico is part of your plan, say so at the start — it changes which option we recommend.
Do not let it lapse quietly — options narrow once you are out of status, though they rarely disappear entirely. Contact us as early as possible and we will tell you exactly where you stand.
