Best Answer

By making an official application at a Mexican Consulate in Canada. I know of no foreign born non-Latino that has acquired Mexican citizenship. Maybe this person meant to say "resident status"? Not citizenship. I am a Mexican citizen with a "green card." I know that virtually any foreigner can become a permanent resident in Mexico (I wish Immigration laws were that easy in the US!) Citizenship, however, may be a little more complicated. 1st of all you'll need to complete residence in Mexico, This is done with an FM2. Every year you need it approved by Immigration for 5 years. On the 6th year your will receive your last stamp from Immigration Dept. which makes you and permanent resident. Then you may apply for ciitzenship with SRE (Secretary of Exterior Relations)in Mexico. Then you must wait 6-8 months while they review your case and decide if you will receive citizenship or not.

If at least one of your parents is Mexican, you are also a Mexican citizen regardless of where you were born. If not, the only way i see is go thru the Mexican naturalizatin process.

AnswerAlso qualifies as a Mexican if at least one of your parent's parents is a Mexican. It does not matter if they got naturalized as an American citizen, they still hold Mexican citizenship, too.

That totally depends on if the immigrant is legal or illegal. if the came on a visa they can do an adjustment of status. if the came illegally the must have a potion by a relative and then they will most likely be subject to a 10yr bar. after serving the 10yr bar they can reapply.

If you are already in the United States, the fact that you are a Mexican citizen does not make it any more difficult for you to get married. You will follow the same procedure as anyone else and the laws of the U.S. state in which you are getting married will dictate the requirements. Marrying a U.S. citizen will not, however, automatically change your immigration status. It will create a path to citizenship, but it is by no means automatic.

If you are in Mexico and you want to marry an American, you can obtain a civil marriage according to the laws of the Mexican state in which you live. Or, your American fiance(e) can apply for a visa for you to come to the United States for the purpose of getting married.

If you marry a Mexican citizen would he become a citizen then or would he have to take the test to become a US citizen?

IF YOU MARRY A MEXICAN, HE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY BECOME AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. THE ONLY THING THAT MARRAIGE ESTABLISHES WHEN YOU MARRY A MEXICAN IS PERMANENT RESIDENT ALIEN STATUS FOR HIM. HE CAN ONLY KEEP THIS IF YOU REMAIN MARRIED FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF YEARS. IF HE WISHES TO BECOME A CITIZEN, HE MUST TAKE THE TEST AND PASS. I married an illegal Mexican immigrant and I was told by an immigration officer that he can be deported until we have been approved for a visa number, but that some immigration officers will be lenient if the immigrant has papers with him showing that the process is underway.
