Note: I have decided
to stop any more comments about traffic control unless something
really unusual happens. From my scientific poll, it's a
fact, one in twelve will be pulled over. Drive safe out there.
Thanks, Cheryl

"Operating under the recycling arm of U Verde, and in search of an
answer to the mass of plastic bottles that has accumulated at the
East Cape RV Resort waiting for recycling day (July 1st!), I visited
yesterday Ambiente, Ciencia, y Desarrollo (Environment, Science, and
Development), a recycling facility in La Paz that is melting
plastics into plywood-like sheets, suitable for any use that plywood
would have- building material, table tops, school desks, etc. The
sheets have properties that trump those of plywood; they are water,
termite, mold, and heat resistant; do not warp under solvents or
alcohols; and, they are an answer to our planet's growing trash
problem (anyone been to the basurera lately?). Equally impressive,
the facility employees mostly mentally and physically disabled
persons, giving them an equal opportunity at safe and stable
employment.
We would like to start expanding our small recycling program here in
Los Barriles, and include our friends at Ambiente, Ciencia, y
Desarrollo. Please check out their website and photos when
considering alternative building supplies, and together let's
support an incredibly worthy cause.
Keep Recycling!

ROAD REPORT
a. We passed through CC on June 8th without any issues. At the
southern
end of the city we turned onto the parallel road to avoid being the
center of attention. We stopped completely for each stop sign and
early
for traffic signals. We saw two policemen on the north end of the
city
who had stopped two Mexican Nationals. North of Ensenada, we took
the
new toll road (no toll yet) from Puerto Nuevo to the Otay Mesa
crossing. Follows the signs to Guarita Otay. It was an easy drive
with
little traffic.
In the San Quentin area we stayed at the Mission Santa Maria on the
beach (formerly The Desert Inn, La Pinta). Very nice accommodations
and
a good restaurant. 500 pesos plus IVA per night. Very safe. Driving
north on H1 look for the large food processing plant in the grove of
screened growing houses. There is a new Pemex station there, turn
left
(heading north), drive through the grove of trees that line the road
and
you will see the Hotel off to the left.

THE NEW IMMIGRATION RULES FOR FOREIGNERS, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
To enter and during one stay in Mexico, what does one need as far as
papers?
A) For a visit of less than 180 days? Passport and the new FMM form
filled out on you at all times.
B) For a visit of more than 180 days? Passport, Visa emitted by a
Mexican embassy or Consulate and the FMM form filled out, on you at
all times.
To be able to stay in Mexico for longer than 180 days what do I need
to do? Acquire a Visa at any Mexican embassy fill out the FMM form
and present both along with passport at point of entry and within 30
days request at any immigration office in Mexico an FM-2 or FM-3.
Do I need an FM-3 or FM-2?
A) Because I have real estate property? No, the FMM is sufficient if
one is in Mexico for less than 180 days.
B) Because I have a partnership or other business in Mexico? No as
long as you are not in the country for more than 180 days but, the
Secretary of Economy and IRS Mexico (SAT) do not recognize the FMM
thus it is necessary at this time that one who is a partner or in
business in his own name has to have an FM-3 in the event that he is
not a full time residence, otherwise one should have an FM-2.
C) Because I want to work in Mexico? No as long as you declare on
the FMM that you are entering Mexico to work and specify what type
of work that you will perform during your 180 day stay. This is
according to the manual but in reality one will have to pass an
interview at the entry point…
Do I need to be in Mexico to renew my FM-3 or FM-2?
Yes because one has to present new photos, finger prints and
signature each time one needs to renew.
Can I get an FM-2 without having had an FM-3? Yes, as long as you
prove that you have immigrated to Mexico, in other words that you
made Mexico your “Home”.
Are there restrictions when one has an FM-2? The only restriction is
that one can not be out of the country for more than 180 days during
a continuous 5 year period, either in one or multiple times.
What advantages do I have by getting an FM-2 vs. an FM-3? After 5
years of having an FM-2 one can either choose to be an “Inmigrado”
(Immigrant status) or acquire the Mexican nationality.
Is it true that if I married a Mexican person I do not need any
immigration papers? No, every foreigner has to have the proper
status to be able to be legal, one who does not have will suffer
that consequences indicated in the law.
If I am illegal in Mexico can I become legal without any problems?
Yes, one can become legal without suffering any consequences if one
presents himself to any immigration office in Mexico and ask for
“Regularización” of his status.
Who can arrest and detain me if I do not have any of the required
immigration ID papers on me? Any police corps who will remit you to
immigration officials in case that you do not have on you your
immigration papers.
Can a police officer request me to show him my immigration papers?
Not unless you are suspected of having done wrong, but as the saying
goes it is better to cooperate...
Can an Immigration officer request me to show him my immigration
papers? Yes at any time.
Can I request an other FMM at an Immigration office once the date
which was written on it expires? No one has to exit the country on
the last day and then can come back in.
