Visa shedding

I cancelled my Residente Temporal (FM3) today, quite painless. Was charged 300 pesos, and allowed 15 days to leave the country....

Why would you do that after going to the trouble to get it?

If an individual travels to the USA, Guatemala or Belize, quite frequently, then the residente permanente status becomes less important.

Best of luck with it all, Chuckie. Stay in touch with all of us here on the board. Your participation will be missed.

Safe travels...

I'm a little surprised at the 300 peso charge. How close to expiration was it? Did they indicate that it was an "early cancellation fee" or something?

Which office did you cancel it at? Santa Rosalia?

chuckie - 3-11-2014 at 06:17 AM

The 300 pesos was for letter preparation and copies..not a cancellation fee

Good luck Chuck. Colorado isn't that bad.

Shedding things that you no longer need, is wise. As to the rest, don't expect much. To grandchildren that you have never seen you will be a stranger for quite a while.
