Same for me except after some pressing they stated that they could get me the card but are waiting for the forms from Guadalajara. They took my phone number on a random slip of paper and even asked for a 2nd number to call so I provided that of my wife. Six weeks later and no call. I might try one more time because I went to so much trouble and the expense of getting those photos.]]></description>

En CDMX trate de sacar mi INAPAM y me la
Negaron por ser extranjero con residencia desde hace 59 años. Me sugieren que vaya a Reforma 51 a preguntar directamente en la oficina central, pero ya escribí al correo que está para contacto en la página del INAPAM y me confirma que las tarjetas para  extranjeros están temporalmente canceladas]]></description>

Mexico certainly has anti discrimination laws against foreign residents. The question is can you find a lawyer to bring your action and is it worth it? I am a lawyer and permanent resident who found it wasn&#039;t. But, as I get older and need an exit strategy, I am considering rocking the boat. They had me to spend all this money to get certain benefits then they deny them with a lie. I was told it would probably change under the new Presidenta. Apparently, it hasn&#039;t!]]></description>
