Before anything else, thanks for writing me at LawGuru.com

Law of Population

Immigration is under the oversight of the National Institute of Immigration ('Instituto Nacional de Migraci�n') which is a department of the Secretary of Government ('Secretar�a de Gobernaci�n') and is regulated by the Law of Population ('Ley de Poblaci�n').

In Mexico, there are 3 distinct immigration statuses. They are:

� No Inmigrante � Non immigrant � FM3 VISA � some short term visits of a non immigrant nature are not issued an FM3, these conditions are stipulated in the Law of Population.

� Inmigrante � Immigrant � FM2

� Inmigrado - Immigrated person � INMIGRADO � Permanent resident

And, obviously, all Mexican laws: Civil, Criminal, etc.

Any doubt or another question, let me know it please.
