I don't THINK Mex Imm will issue an fmt without
a passport/passcard. I get 1 when spending
any time in Mex. Many/most san Felipe visitors
do not get fmt's, and as of May 1, called fmm.
My long term Mex Ins states the 72 hr' rule,
regardless of Mex Ins, one is supposed to be in the
country legally. At the Mexicalli Mex Imm, they will
tell you you don't need it for 7 days or less.
That is there position, I prefer to be
prepared. Don't know if the New Regs
will have the same free 7 day fmt or not as
currently available

citizen. HOWEVER - after June 5th or something like that crossing the border without a valid passport carries a $500 fine. At least that's what the
agent told me. |
 Yikes!!!

Thanks... You can EDIT you posts and change or delete them... just click the edit button next to where you read any post YOU have made. It is how you
can fix spelling or typo errors, very handy if you type like I do (two fingers)!

Like possibly thru Tecate or ? |
You can enter the US without any I.D. You declare to the Agent you are a U.S. citizen and they have to let you into the country.. you will be
questioned and they will run a check on you to determine that you are who you say you are. It will cost some time, but you will get back in.

The $500 was probably the estimate to be paid to the Coyote for pointing out the direction of the entry point!!!!!

WE just don't want them to get toooo much delay as they have jobs in U.S. they are still tied to. But Im also thinking like David they might be ok
with just receipts for passports & DL as I am hearing from other sources that these ID's are still being accepted.
Thank you for your replies. |
Birth Certificate and DL are find; there are people who cross daily with them. You probably won't even get sent to secondary, especially if you do
not look Hispanic.
