A real person is behind this
Built and supported by Roger Scott in Mexico
I went through the Mexican residency process myself and built the tool I wish I had: one place where the requirements are sourced, the steps stay current, and someone answers when the official instructions are unclear. When you message support, you are not handed to an anonymous facilitator or a chatbot.
Questions before you pay?
Tell me your consulate and what feels uncertain. If the product is not appropriate for your case, I will say so.
Email Roger directly →Mexican residency isn't hard. It's just easy to get wrong.
The process is mostly paperwork, but the details bite: statement format, apostilles, consulate quirks, and the 30-day deadline after you land. We turn those moving parts into one clear path for your case.
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.
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.

Why we built this
ResidencyMexico is built and operated by Roger Scott from Mexico. I went through the residency trámite myself — the conflicting forum advice, the outdated PDF guides, the consulate that wanted one more document. I built this to do for others what I wish had existed for me: 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.
How do I know you're legit — not another facilitator who takes the money and disappears?+
Fair question — it's the most common horror story in the expat groups. Three things: our consulate data is public and sourced (check it free in the calculator before you pay anything), a real, named person in Mexico answers your messages, and we back the product with the Follow-the-Plan Guarantee: Follow your ResidencyMexico plan and still do not receive your residency visa or resident card? We will refund your purchase.
What's your refund policy?+
Follow your ResidencyMexico plan and still do not receive your residency visa or resident card? We will refund your purchase. To qualify, enter accurate information, follow the checklist and timing guidance, and contact us before submitting if anything in your case changes or seems unclear. The guarantee does not apply if the problem comes from inaccurate information, missing or altered documents, missed deadlines, undisclosed immigration or criminal history, or applying through a different route than your plan covered.
Which consulates and countries are covered?+
We cover 60+ consulates across the US, Canada, and Western Europe — 24 with consulate-specific published amounts and the deepest coverage today 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.
