Ted J. Says:
What is the current minimum monthly pension income amount required to qualify for long-term living in Mexico?
IL Mexico Correspondent Bel Woodhouse Says:
Hi Ted,
To be eligible for permanent residency in Mexico, you need to show income, or pension, in at least six months of bank statements with a balance of $7,100.
Each consulate has the power to change these figures a little so I would reach out to contact the Mexican Consulate nearest you to book an appointment.
The appointment usually has a small fee of around $53 attached to it and they will let you know of any concessions you may be eligible for.
You can find the application form for a permanent resident visa to Mexico here.
Learn more about the various visa options available for Mexico on the IL website.
Hope that helps, and best of luck with your application!
