chapalence Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 Are you informing? Asking for help? If the later, information is necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapalence Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 They gave you the answer. Wait a week and check again. No big deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still extranjeros (not yet residents), she took passport photocopies and was out in 30 minutes with mission accomplished. Moral of the story: send your Mexican facilitator.

demargot Posted September 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 thanks for responding. Yes I went to CFE twice a week apart with my real estate agent who facilitated purchase of house. the man at the desk said all documents were satisfactory but system is down each time and there is a lot of back log. crazy! it has been at least several weeks, my real estate guy checked again last week, still down, never been so bad he says. I became suspicious because it seemed weird to be unable to do this for so long. I posted on FB and others are having the same problem. I can't get solar panels till my name is on the bill. just wanted to know if others mentioned same issue on this site. I'm new on Chapala.com and mistakenly posted this topic twice cause I thought the first one didn't go through when writing via phone. sorry, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside7 Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 The ease at which any changes can be made is dependent on the CFE manager . Sometimes a new guy will instruct his worker bees to make sure all the correct documents are presented etc. The system failure is another issue, but the time to o fix that is inexcusable ...Maybe they're waiting for a CFE service guy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
