I am Officially Legal in Mexico

While probably not necessary, considering my length of stay in Mexico and my planned visits to the States, I have been in the process of obtaining an FM 3 Visa which grants me temporary residency status. The three month process has included several rushed trips to Mexico City for signatures and photos along with plenty of laughter at the headaches it has caused. However, this morning, I was rewarded with an official visa. I am no longer a tourist in the country. For my third, and hopefully final trip, I entered the Instituto Nacional de Migracion (National Institute for Immigration) to have my fingerprints taken and to receive a document that looks like a smaller version of a passport.
