hensley Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Ok here I am again with no proof. Yes I have a lease but a well known lawyer here, did not put my name on it. So how do I prove proof of residency? I know I need to go to Chapala and get a Carta de Residencia but how do I prove where I live? Utility bill is in my husbands name, Bank account lists him first so my name will not print on a statement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Same thing happened to my wife. Here is how we solved that. Go to Telmex and change the name on your phone bill. It was fast, and we had the proof on the next phone bill. That is a possible solution 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I can only respond about the bank situation. HSBC -I am the primary. We were issued two sets of documents. One in my name and the second in his name as secondary owner. Both sets have our address listed on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 We did the phone bill thing. You just have to in and talk to someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfa Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I don't think INM will accept a bank statement as proof of residence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hensley Posted September 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Thank you, I think we will try the phone bill thing, will they give us a copy right away? As our monthly should be coming any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibarra Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Just curious . You need a CURP number to change name at Telmex. How can hensley possibly have a CURP number without previous/current proof of residency? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm1mex Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 CFE would only put one name on the bill, but TelMex put 2 names on our bill so we use the phone bill as proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THanks Beth I tried to message you but you are not accepting them. What we were doing was changing the Telmex account from both of our names (it's been that way since 2009) to just my name and adding my RFC (tax ID) number. All I had with me was our last Telmex bill, my residente permanente card, and my RFC number printout. I don't know why I can't get messages, Julie. I'll go in and delete some and see if that helps. I did get a PM from someone a couple of weeks ago without a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hensley Posted September 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Thank you, we just went to Telmex and found out you can no longer have 2 names on your bill, it is either one or the other and the only thing we needed was both our passports, so all done.
