Does anybody know if being born in the US from Mexican parents affords a person preferential treatment as far as getting permanent residence or even Mexican citizenship?

You are entitled to mexican citizenship...just have to apply and send your $$...go to DF and you are in!

All right.

How about somebody married to a Mexican citizen?

I got my citizenship through marriage to a mexican citizen...you must apply, pay, take a test in spanish which consists of 5 questions...you can only have 1 mistake to pass and there are 100 questions they can choose from so you need to study and have knowledge of spanish...I do believe the test is waived if you are over 60 or maybe 65 I'm not sure.

Most of us have used a fantastic guy in DF to make it easier. Gilberto Pinera, his office # is 555-529-8701 and cell is 555-419-6812..he is awesome and not that expensive...worth every peso. tell him Shari from Asuncion referred you...we are friends...his family is fantastic too and treated me like family and showed me all around DF.

He makes it so easy...call him...he picks you up at the airport, you stay in a nice suite in his house if you want, he drives you everywhere and breezes through the red tape with ease. After 6-8 months, you go back, get your papers and passport and you never have to deal with immigration again!!
