Well, I would be a bit worried about CFE cutting off my power because my bank froze my funds as well. Fortunately my power is solar. Only thing I would have difficulty paying for banking reasons is my internet, and it's hardly a necessity.
I don't know exactly where you are located Bajatrailrider, but the SAT office at La Paz has 3 days early in Oct with openings for appointments to apply if you have all the necessary documents lined up last I looked.

Huh? Do you have money in a Mexican bank that you can't withdraw? What gives?

No, no, I am commiserating with what Bajatrailrider posted and said "I would be...... ". My bank has not frozen my funds yet and I am also in the process of obtaining the RFC number ASAP.

Have no idea what you are talking about, as usual much of what you post is gobbledigook lacking punctuation and coherent sentences.

Travelling to another city to try to get out of having an RFC number makes no sense. It's federal law having nothing to do with local politics. And CFE is a federal entity. Are you out of your Mind . Do you think Mexican workers on ranches and pickers. Are making 80 bucks a week care about federal law. Are going to travel hundreds of miles. To sign up haha they dont even have CFE. You do understand gobbledigook so get real. :yes:

You should learn how to quote a post and respond to it. You don't put your responses into the quote. You quote the post and then respond after it.

And pickers earning 80 bucks a week likely don't do things or deal with entities they will need to provide their RFC to. If you live the lifestyle of a Mexican tomato picker, you probably won't either.

Not a bookkeeper, an accountant. Those aren't the same thing.

None of these "thousands" have ever paid taxes?

Sounds like Conservative Nirvana.

And this is exactly why SAT is requiring all residents, be they foreigners or Mexican, to have RFC numbers. You can't run a country well, and provide roads, water, and other infrastructure if people aren't paying taxes.

It doesn't really matter what country people are from or live in, if one doesn't want to be part of the "system", put their money under the mattress instead of in a bank, be self-sufficient, not rely on public utilities and services, don't expect the fire dept. to show up if their house catches fire, etc, there is always that option.

But most people depend on a certain level of infrastructure that they themselves didn't build. The money has to come from somewhere, hence taxes.

And most countries have tax exemptions for low-income people. A Mexican laborer who earns 200 pesos for 8 hours work and has dependents is not going to have to pay taxes even if they have an RFC and file declarations. And if they are being paid slave wages, under mandated minimum wage law, they should report the employer. Mexican labor law heavily supports the worker.

You are obviously unfamiliar with Mexican labor law, which mandates things like severance pay, xmas bonuses and vacation pay. If a Mexican employee goes to the labor relations board to report employers violating these laws, the worker almost always wins.

And if you think I was advocating someone getting paid 200 pesos for a day's work, you have a reading comprehension problem. I said that someone low income like that would not be required to pay any taxes, even if they reported their earnings to SAT. Anyone I hire to work gets around 100 pesos/hr. and my only steady employee, the gal who cleans for me, gets her proper xmas bonus and vacation pay every year.

Perhaps some that mattress money could be spent on English grammar and punctuation classes. Or a higher quality motorcycle helmet.

My Mexican bank just changed quite a few rules. They are going to charge me for withdrawals now, I just hate that.

Do you have her registered with the IMSS?

I've always been a little uncertain about that for part-time domestic help who serve multiple employers (at what point are they independent contractors?), but in most cases I believe it is required...


No. I don't know the exact parameters of that, but she only works for me once every 2 weeks for 4 hrs, she's not anything like a full time employee. And I know she and her family already have some kind of medical insurance.

What I found when I was building my house years ago is that my crew didn't want to be signed up for the socio- they said that if they got sick and needed to take time off work, they doubted they would ever see payment for that or medical bills. They preferred that I just reimburse them in such a case. And they didn't take advantage of that at all. I think I paid out something like $150 between 6 guys over 6 months to cover doctor visits, sick days, and needed medication.
I also think they don't want to come to the govt's. attention, as I'm sure they weren't declaring their income.

I will say I was just praying that none of them fell off a ladder and broke their back.

But I had them sign receipts for anything I paid them.

To whom are you directing your comments? If they are to me, apparently you don't actually read anything that is written, you just cherry-pick the parts you want to denigrate. I already said I pay anyone who works for me 100 pesos an hour, not 200 pesos a day. I also pay steady employees their mandated Xmas bonus and vacation pay. Do you?

Mexican labor law should be a concern of anyone who hires someone to work for them. So I am assuming you never hire anyone and do any work you need done yourself.
