yes, i have been trying to get mine for months.  They have not had cards available.  They told me to call first to see if the cards are available.  I have not called in a long while so maybe they are ready.  Go up street towards Soriana, turn right on Degollado.  That corner is a Fruit water store, green awning.  Go up the road.  The DIF is on the left, big white building.  Enter building, office is on the left.  But yes i have been in there 3 times and she says to just call to see if cards are in.

They've been "out of cards" in Isla Mujeres for about two years. In March I went to the office to check availablity and as I entered I walked past a local exiting with her new card, but, alas, they were "out of cards". Officially the program is fully functional, but I think unofficially someone has decided that some people don't need any discounts. Not sure if there's a similar situation here.

I went to the Federal Office Building at Av. Alcalde 500 in Guadalajara for my INAPAM card and received it the same day I applied.  No fuss, no muss, no line.

I travel a LOT in Mexico, and 95% of the time by bus.  All buses--whether local or long distance--offer 50% discounts on tickets for INAPAM card holders.  Last year alone I probably saved  6,000 to 9,000 pesos, maybe more--which amounts to about 600 pesos per round trip from Morelia, Michoacán (where I live) to Mexico City.

I got mine several years ago in guadalajara, the director refused to give me the card and I stuck to my guns and she called a immigration director in and he told her I qualified she was pissed, sorry I had to share that. I believe lcs had a program to get the card thru them, when they open back up I would check with them,

In my experience in Chapala the lady is as nice as can be.  The only problem is they run out of cards so you need to check before going.
