You can't come and go as you please. You need to check out at the border or airport. Your permanent residency is not a free pass. They keep track of the amount of time you are in and out of the country.

I am hoping to go to the INM office this week as there is a list of obligations a resident has to fulfill.

I won't argue this point, it's fact. If you want to disregard the law, that's fine with me. Rules are rules.

As for the "free-zone" and U.S. or Canadian plated vehicles, just remember the sailboat story and the 338 sailboats and yachts that were confiscated as the owners ignored.

What is the purpose of living in Mexico if you need to have everything American. Doesn't make sense. Finished.

Quote: Permanent Resident visa holders may not have a foreign plated car in Mexico. The only exception is where no TIP is required. Otherwise, it is subject to confiscation and plus a large fine. If in an accident your insurance is null and void.

I am intending on moving down full time once my parents are gone. The main reason right now is because I am working for a Mexican company and want to be legal, plus the financial qualifications keep going up (20% in January). It may be out of reach for me eventually. Also I am usually in Mexico longer than 180 days a year.
