Built and run from Mexico by people who did the trámite themselves.

Versus $1,500–2,500 for an immigration lawyer.

Mexican residency isn't hard. It's just easy to get wrong.

The process is mostly paperwork — but the details bite. A bank statement in the wrong format. An apostille on the wrong document. A consulate that wants something the forums didn't mention. A 30-day deadline after you land that nobody warned you about. Each mistake costs weeks. We've turned the whole thing into a clear path that adapts to your exact situation, so you do it once and do it right.

It adapts to your case

Two applicants almost never need the same things. The product reads your situation and shows only what applies to you — here's what that looks like.

Retiring on a pension

We tell you whether to go Temporal or straight to Permanente, exactly which pension and Social Security documents your consulate wants, and how to present them.

Self-employed or remote

Self-employment gets extra scrutiny. You get the document strategy that holds up — 12 months of statements, tax returns, and how to describe your work so it doesn't raise questions.

Moving with family

Each child needs an apostilled birth certificate — and if one parent isn't applying, a notarized consent letter that trips up half of family applications. We make sure yours is ready.

From confirming your case to holding your residency card — one clear step at a time, each unlocking the next.

Why we built this

ResidencyMexico is built and operated from Mexico. We went through the residency trámite ourselves — the conflicting forum advice, the outdated PDF guides, the consulate that wanted one more document. We built this to do for others what we wish had existed for us: clear, specific, current guidance for your exact case, at a fraction of what a lawyer charges.

Common questions

Do I need to use the calculator first?+

No, but it's the fastest way to confirm you qualify before you buy. The product picks up where the calculator leaves off — turning a 'yes, you qualify' into an actual step-by-step plan for your case.

What if my case is complex?+

The product handles most standard cases well. If yours has genuinely complex elements — a prior visa denial, an unusual family situation, business immigration — we tell you honestly and point you to a vetted attorney. Software can't replace human judgment on those.

What's your refund policy?+

30-day money-back guarantee, as long as you haven't started Step 2 (gathering documents). If it's not right for you, email us and we'll refund you.

Which consulates and countries are covered?+

We cover 20+ consulates across the US, Canada, and Western Europe. The deepest coverage today is for US applicants. If your consulate isn't fully covered, we apply the federal formula, flag it clearly, and you can ask us to add it.

How long does the whole process take?+

It varies by case and consulate, but document gathering is usually 2–6 weeks, then appointment availability, then a 30-day canje window once you arrive in Mexico. The product keeps your timeline honest at every step so nothing catches you off guard.

Is this legal advice?+

No. We're not attorneys and this isn't legal advice. It's accurate, current guidance to help you handle a standard residency process yourself — the same thing many people pay lawyers $1,500–2,500 to walk them through.
