Drew Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hi I currently live in Costa Rica and have also lived in Panama.I visited Ajijic last May and like everyone else fell in love with it.My question is it possible to live in Ajijic and check out every 6 months for a new tourist visa and check back in indefinatly?I have been doing that here in Costa Rica for 13 years with no problem.I have heard recently that a few people have had problems doing that in Mexico.I would like others opinions.I sure would like to try out the Lake Chapala area with out commiting to residency for at least a year or so.Any answers would really be appreciated. Thanks Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RVGRINGO Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Sure, you can. However, there have been those rare cases of denial, as you know. They are probably due to any number of factors, like quck turn-around, poor attitude, undesirable appearance, being drunk, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew That is the elephant in the room, not sure about CR situation , but at Lakeside a big issue. Please tell how is the real estate market in CR?

Natasha Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 If and when you get here, Drew, learn from past experience and RENT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercasa Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Best to get legal and get temporary residency so you can have a driver license, apply for the national health plan and not worry about being barred from entry to your home if they do start allowing people to only be here 180 days a year. Also that would place you on the road to citizenship 5 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiko Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Buy your ticket and take your chances. Go FMM and in 6 months you will know if you belong at lakeside or not. If you can´t make a decision by then , look into Donepezil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Thanks again for all the advice.To answer Lakeside7 the real estate market in my area of Cr being the southern zone is very slow for now.Hopefully when rainy season is over it will pick up.
