Hola Joel ! 👋 Thanks to Paul and you, and this video's original airing. I watched each of the episodes with Sergio. I'm proud to say that Sergio Santana is the best for getting your residency‼️ I now have my 3 year residence card and will definitely have Sergio represent all my Mexican legal services! Thanks Joel, Paul, Sergio‼️ Viva la Mexico‼️🥳🇲🇽🇨🇦
Best tip - Research the area you want to live. Some places in Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay Area are very touristy and you will pay prices accordingly. These areas are more like resorts and have English spoken widely. If you live in more local areas with less tourists and primarily just Spanish, there is a definite cost of living difference. It’s actually quite noticeable going from one area to another.
We moved to Puerto Vallarta. I would follow the advice of other foreigners. Sell most of your stuff and only bring small electronics. Furnishings that are made for Canada may not weather well in an area with plenty of termites. It’s very costly to move here from Canada as it has to travel two countries.
If you come in with a tourist or temporary visa, you can get a TIP at the border crossing, np. If you come in with a Permanent Visa as I did, you cannot get a TIP. You must sell your vehicle or import it. This can cost you between 2500-4500 USD with an import company on the Mexican side of the border. I love my vehicle, so yes, I did import it. (the devil you know is better than the devil you do not, re a vehicle). You must shop around for an import company, as some will charge you more and take up to 5 days. Mine was very cost effective and took only a day. Then once you arrive at whichever state you're going to live in, you must plate the vehicle. I had a service charge me only 3000 pesos(an American expat wanted to charge me 6000) to drive me to Tepic, plate the vehicle, then guide me with the next steps up to the point I had my drivers license and car insurance.
Such a cool spot! We always love a Sunday b-fast here!!

Hi. What was the name of the company you used to import your vehicle. Also what is the location of the company. Cheers
