They’ve already decided where to live. We make sure it’s legal.
Retirees who traded their routine for the sea, artists who reinvented themselves in a magical town, couples who found their place, or someone who came for love and stayed for a calling — they all need the same thing: the right residency, handled correctly from the start.
Temporary Residency by Pension
Traded the office for the Sea of Cortez
After years of routine, he decided his retirement would look different: a fishing club in Sonora, his own boat, and unhurried mornings. Like many foreign retirees, the only thing left was resolving his immigration status — provable pension income, the right paperwork, no surprises halfway through.
Temporary Residency by Pension
Found her second life in a magical town
She traded her hometown for the cobblestone streets of San Miguel de Allende, and her office for an easel. Every year, hundreds of foreigners settle in Mexico’s Pueblos Mágicos looking for exactly this — and they all need the same legal foundation to stay.
Permanent Residency as a Couple
They have breakfast facing the ocean every day
A view of the Pacific, solar panels, a terrace they wouldn’t trade for anything. They handled their permanent residency together, as a couple, with one clear process from start to finish — no duplicated paperwork, no mismatched expiration dates.
Residency Through Family Ties
She came for love and stayed for a calling
She moved to Mexico after getting married, and today teaches yoga in a park in Mexico City. Her process was different from a retiree’s — family ties, not a pension — and just as clear: she knew exactly what documents she needed and how long it would take.
