You have to get the one to the USA first, in other words, nearly impossible!.
They think you are going to cross the border, maybe swim "El Rio Grande" o come, like most latino americans, by "El HUECO" good Lord!!!!

Feliz Navidad!

Why would you want to go to Mexico apart from leisure?

Why would you want to go to Mexico apart from leisure?


I'm American and moving to either Puerto Vallarta or Acapulco for business for a year or two. I have a Colombiana girlfriend. I was hoping it would be easier for her to visit in Mexico vs US or Canadian tourist visa. I have the option to stay put in the US or move to Canada too.

Which is harder to get? US tourist visa or Mexican tourist visa.

If I am in Mexico as a US citizen, and write a letter, saying and proving I'm not leaving Mexico, she is only coming for 2 weeks and we are not going to the US.......will the Mexican interviewer go for that?

Maybe a letter from my Mexican lawyer / notary saying I'm not leaving Mexico.....etc...

??

Letter's won't help you. She will need to obtain a US visa before she will ever be granted a Mexican visa. Her chances of obtaining a US visa depend upon many factors. Does she come from a family with money? Does she herself have money. Does she own a business in Colombia? Odds are she won't get a US visa but maybe if your are persistent and have a year or two worth of patience you she might be successful but I wouldn't put too much hope into it. You'll most likely be making several trips back to Colombia to see her.

Best of Luck!
