Living and Working in Mexico

Every year, thousands of foreigners move to Mexico for a variety of different reasons. Some will go to Mexico to study, others to work for a company that has sent them there on assignment.�Some people move to Mexico in search of a new life, usually after having visited several times, perhaps for extended periods.

Many people move to Mexico each year to retire - you can read about doing this by connecting to the guides about Retirement in Mexico on Mexperience. Also see Real Estate in Mexico.

Economy of mexico

The economy of Mexico is the 10th to 12th largest in the world. Since the 1994 crisis, administrations have improved the country's macroeconomic fundamentals. Mexico was not significantly influenced by the recent 2002 South American crisis, and has maintained positive, although low, rates of growth after a brief period of stagnation in 2001. Moody's (in March 2000) and Fitch IBCA (in January 2002) issued investment-grade ratings for Mexico's sovereign debt. In spite of its unprecedented macroeconomic stability, which has reduced inflation and interest rates to record lows and has increased per capita income, enormous gaps remain between the urban and the rural population, the northern and southern states, and the rich and the poor.[97] Some of the government's challenges include the upgrade of infrastructure, the modernization of the tax system and labor laws, and the reduction of income inequality.

How would an American obtain a work permit in Mexico?

How would an American obtain a work permit in Mexico City?

My sister may move to mexico City. She speaks some Spanish. Has good experience with office work. Would she apply before she moves to Mexico or once she is in Mexico? Also, do you think she will be able to find employment?

She would need to get a work permit with an FM3visa….very difficult to get. She must find an empoyer who will write a letter to immigrtion stating he is giving her a job and cannot find a Mexican national to fill this job. This usually involves very highy tecnical work requiring highly skilled workers. He must sponser her work visa and the work visa is good only as long as she holds that job. Nobody is going to do this for an office worker.Wages are extremely low. It is not at all practical for a young Ameican to move to Mexico to work and make a living.She can check with the nearest Mexican consult to confirm this info.
