  1. I'm stateside now, but looking forward to getting my temp visa and relocating finally. May not be GDL/Lakeside, but I agree with the respondents thus far. I was always well treated by Lakeside locals, and those participating in this forum have always been particularly helpful. I like animals, and in fact I did volunteer at the local animal shelter, which is probably not located where it was years ago. And don't forget that the Mexicans are always most approachable and, for the most part, eager to help.
  2. Thanks Mainecoons, no such luck, turn 74 this month. Of course, I have Medicare + supplemental, but will have to go with SP, the Medicaid of Mexico due to pre-existing. D
  3. Thanks, Sonia Diaz, for taking the time and trouble to respond to this issue. I will look to your site for additional help. Of course, the very idea raises the specter of other unforeseen problems that may arise "out of the blue". I know this happens in Mexico, as I've lived and travelled many states, including working in DF, so you'll understand if "Tengo dudas." I think I will stick with this forum. I stayed just outside Ajijic many years ago, long before Walmart. I first rented a condo in Ribiera del Pilar, then a house. Should have stayed in the nice condo -- house turned out to be a house for scorpions.
  4. I won't qualify for permanent visa based on the calculations set forth in the new law for 2017. I will, however, qualify for temp under the different set of criteria. However, it has been suggested on another forum that those holding a temp card cannot apply for Seguro Popular. I suppose it makes sense if the influx of aging retirees is putting a strain on the system. Obviously, residency over a four-year span, but w/o a valid health insurance policy, would be out of the question. I've spent considerable time researching the SESA sites for each potential destination, but this, too, may have been a waste of time. Does anyone have experience with this?
