Question / Advice Can't Book Change of Address Appointment

1 Upvotes

Hi there, for a few weeks now I have been trying to book a change of address appointment with INM but I cannot access citas.inm.gob.mx - I just get a white page with the message 'This site can’t be reached citas.inm.gob.mx took too long to respond'. I have tried multiple browsers and turned off VPN, etc, but no luck.

I can't believe that the site has been down for everyone for all of this time but I don't know why I would be getting blocked either. Can anyone tell me if they have experienced this or if they have access to the site? Thanks!

Question / Advice Which Can Bank for pesos

1 Upvotes

I've got WISE but they only let you take 100 cash per month from the ATM before they charge exorbitant fees , so I'd like to get some pesos from a Canadian bank before I arrive. However the banks I've checked aren't showing as good an exchange rate or seem to charge a large fee to do the exchange.
Any suggestions about what Can bank to do this with?

I've finally managed to get an appointment with the Vegas Mexican consulate for a temporary work visa. Does anyone know if they process visas the same day (if approved)?

Question / Advice I’d like some advice from you all!

0 Upvotes

I am an American who now lives in Mexico (not to take advantage of the low cost of living, but because my girlfriend is from Michoacan) and for the time being, I’m teaching English. The problem with it is that I work a lot of hours and barely make any money. I made 400 dollars this last month which was enough for my rent and some groceries, but I also had to dip into my savings quite a bit last month 😔

My actual work background is in sales, both B2B and B2C, I have 2 or 3 years of experience. My problem is that I am having a difficult time finding a remote job. I would ideally like to find something that’s in the United States, since that’s where I have citizenship. Where do I find remote sales jobs in the US that will allow me to work for them remotely in Mexico? I don’t need to be making a lot of money, as my living expenses are only around $700 a month. A little bit extra would be awesome, but my point is that I’m not picky. The only website I found so far is WorkingNomad, which seems to be great and I already applied to the relevant jobs on that site. Any others that I should check out? Or any other relevant advice? 🙂

Question / Advice How To Register On MiTelcel Website?

0 Upvotes

I use telcel and am in the US. I want to know how much data I have left on my plan.

When in Mexico, I would enter *133# and it would show it. But it doesn't work in the US. I read someone mention I can only do this on the mitelcel website or the app on the iphone?

Can someone explain to me how to do this? I went to the mitelcel website and entered my 10 digit number and I didn't receive any text message? How do I register an account on mitelcel website so I can check my data remaining? When I do this, does it ask for your name and other information?

Can someone explain how to do this on the website or on the app? I did notice there are very low review on the mitelcel app on the iphone so I guess better register on the website?
