FM2: time allowed out of Mexico each year?

Can't Post | Private Reply

I understand -correct me if I'm wrong- that with an FM2, a total of 18 months out of the country is allowed during a five-year period.

Is there a stated maximum time out permitted during ONE YEAR? (One would think there must be a regulation on this.)

You posted your own answer. :-) During your first 5 years on the FM2, the maximum time spent out of the country can be a total of no more than 18 months.

I asked about a per-year limit and was told 90 days. That doesn't quite add up to 18 months in five years, so the agent may have intended it as a guideline.
