Your immigration matter in three steps.

A streamlined, digital process that removes uncertainty from the very first conversation through to the resolution of your case.

1

Diagnosis and strategy

We sit down with you to understand your situation. You walk away with a clear diagnosis, the right immigration path, applicable requirements, a realistic timeline, and a service proposal with defined fees.

2

File preparation

You send us your digital documents and answer a handful of targeted questions. We validate the strategy, organize the paperwork, fill in official forms, and prepare your file under professional quality control.

3

Filing and outcome

We file your case before the relevant authority, or coach you step by step so you can file with confidence. We keep you posted at every stage until your case is resolved.

Four pillars that define our service.

Common Ground brings together deep specialization in Mexican immigration law, a streamlined digital process, and truly multilingual service — an experience the Mexican immigration market does not currently offer.

  • False, incomplete or late information provided by the client
  • Documents prepared or issued by third parties
  • Force majeure or unforeseen events

Under Mexican law and applicable professional ethics, Common Ground warrants the technical quality of its own professional work, not the outcome of the procedure before the authorities. Read the full terms →
