Gavo Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hello all-- I am in the process of applying for renewal of my temporary residency in Mexico. However, I changed addresses about 5 months ago but never registered that with the gov here in Mexico. Will I be able to renew my residency under these circumstances? Or would my application be rejected because i have not registered my new address within the 90 day time frame allowed? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Gavo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo1 Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Obviously, don't tell them when you moved. Tell them it was last month or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change of address at your INM office takes about 3 working days and is no charge. Fill out the "tramite" form to change address on their "Tramites" webpage. Print it out and bring it into their office and have a bill with your current address - original and a copy. CFE bill can be in your landlord's name. They don't even want to see lease agreements - they tend to believe you when I have helped friends at the INM office. There is no area on the form for your old address - they have it. They ask for the complete new address and the date you moved there. The bill you take in needs to be within the last 90 days. Very easy. If you renew and change addresses at the same time I see no problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday is the last day. So if I go tomorrow (wednesday) it's still possible that they'll accept both at the same time? si llego con lana creo que no habra ninguna bronca pero no se. thoughts? thanks for your feedback.

AlanMexicali Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 You should go 3 to 4 days before the expiration date. Don't wait. It might be you simply tell them you moved and I am here to renew my RT visa. They can renew it for 1, 2, or 3 years. You tell them what you want. Fill out the online "tramite" to renew and print it out. Go in now and don't worry about you moving - it is no big deal to them. If you wait until the last day on Fri. ( some of them they don't like that kind of thing - slack attitude - The INM stuff isn't very important to me ) and you don't give them what they need to start the "tramite" you might be requested to start over again when you come back on Monday - 3 days late.

Sonia Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 You do both processes at same time, a renewal and a change of address. You may do both up to and including the day of expiration. https://www.facebook.com/www.soniadiaz.mx/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a challenge combining both tramites into one form on their website. But I'll keep digging and surely I'll find the way forward. Much appreciated, Sonia.

Honorandfaith Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Gavo, did they tell you at the office how long it would take to process your visa renewal? I was told to start a month before the renewal, and they just BARELY got it finished within that month (last year). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
