FMM is easy at TJ. It is wise to have correct change. We crossed early in the morning and no one could break a $20 bill...

AFter alot of humming and hawing...shifting weight...I said the last time I helped some people, the officer gave them a small fine and gave them the cards. He asked how many of them there were...there were 10 so I guess it made it worth his while.

So he amiably filled out their cards, they paid for them at the little bank there and then he said he needed to see their car so he went outside and proceeded to charge them the 56 peso each fine...in cash outside the office...not discreetly either...and with a nod and a grin they were on their way...so one CAN possibly get the FMM in the Immigration office by the port...on a good day!

So....best to get them at the border.


haha I met that man years ago, he is a slight man about 5'5, mustache and his hand is out permanently. Did he move to the new location also?
