Quick buy
Get the admin system for $24 — or the full move bundle for only $25 more.
If the bureaucratic middle is your actual blocker, this guide is a tight fit. If the move also includes residency and logistics in the same season of life, the bundle usually wins on simple economics and on keeping the stages connected.
Best fit: the bureaucratic middle
First 90 Days Admin Setup Kit
- See the resident card → CURP → RFC → e.firma → CSF → bank / IMSS chain in one place.
- Use the proof-of-address rules, bank matrix, and IMSS tables without rebuilding the sequence yourself.
- Checkout runs through Stripe and successful orders unlock the PDF immediately.
The answer first
If you already have status — or you’re about to land and know the next problem is admin setup — this is probably the right guide.
The core idea comes straight from the product research: the hard part is not usually finding one official page. It’s understanding which document unlocks the next one, what to prepare before you walk into SAT or a bank branch, and which tasks look optional until they abruptly are not.
Best fit
- You’re a new temporary or permanent resident trying to set up real administrative life in Mexico.
- You want CURP, RFC, e.firma, CSF, banking, NSS, and IMSS explained in the right order.
- You’d like fewer wasted branch visits and fewer moments of “wait, I needed that first?”
What it is not built for
- Not a business-incorporation or full tax-compliance manual.
- Not a personal tax-advice product tailored to assets, filings, or cross-border structures.
- Not a substitute for the residency guide if you’re still stuck at the consulate stage.
What makes it premium
- A dependency map that shows what unlocks what.
- A 90-day sequence instead of a bunch of disconnected explainers.
- Operational appendices: bank matrix, SAT channel selector, IMSS tables, and proof-of-address rules you can actually use.
What’s inside
This guide is strongest when you use it like a sequence and not like a random-access article archive.
The sections are built to answer: what should I do next, and what should I already have in my hand before I try it?
| Inside the guide | What it covers | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Dependency map | Resident card → CURP → RFC → e.firma → CSF → bank / IMSS flow, shown on one page. | Because this chain is the single most useful mental model for the whole first-90-days period. |
| 90-day sequencing overview | A practical timeline for what to handle in days 1–14, 15–30, 31–60, and 61–90. | Because arrival month has a way of dissolving into errands unless someone gives it structure. |
| CURP, RFC, e.firma, and CSF sections | Official workflow summaries, decision points, common failure modes, and document-prep expectations. | Because SAT and identity tasks punish missing prerequisites more than they punish ignorance. |
| 6-bank comparison matrix and branch script | BBVA, HSBC, Banamex, Scotiabank, Santander, and Banorte — plus the script for confirming what your branch really accepts. | Because public bank pages still mix current rules with legacy wording, and branch confirmation is not optional. |
| NSS and IMSS module | NSS routes, IMSS family-insurance options, independent-worker path context, and the 2026 premium table. | Because healthcare setup feels much calmer when it is connected back to the admin chain instead of treated like a separate universe. |
| Proof-of-address master list and SAT support appendix | Official address-proof age limits, appointment references, office locator context, OrientaSAT, and fallback channels. | Because “bring a utility bill” is not remotely specific enough for real SAT prep. |
Why this one earns its keep
The value is less about any one form and more about not getting bounced between systems.
That’s the theme running through the product docs, and honestly it’s the right one.
The paid-product advantage here
Free content can explain CURP. Another page can explain RFC. Another can explain IMSS. The paid guide gets more useful when it holds the chain together and tells you what to do first, what to bring, and what not to assume.
What the guide is specifically trying to prevent
- Showing up to SAT with the wrong proof-of-address document or the right one at the wrong age limit.
- Trying to open a bank account before you have the identity and tax packet that makes the branch say yes more easily.
- Leaving NSS and IMSS until much later because nobody explained how they fit into the first-90-days sequence.
You’ll probably get the most from this if you want
- A field-manual version of the admin stack, not a glossy overview.
- A bank matrix that labels public bank wording honestly, including legacy immigration terminology.
- A guide that treats support channels and fallback routes as part of the product, not footnotes.
Single guide or full system?
If the consulate stage is behind you, this guide can stand on its own. If the whole move is still in motion, the bundle is usually the better call.
It depends on where the pressure is right now. That’s the honest answer.
Start with the Admin Setup Kit if…
- You already have status handled or you know arrival is imminent.
- Your actual stress point is now CURP, RFC, banking, or IMSS — not visa approval.
- You want a disciplined first-90-days plan rather than figuring it out branch by branch.
Go bundle-first if…
- You still need residency help and move logistics help in the same season of life.
- You do not want the admin stage to arrive as a surprise right after you finish solving the residency stage.
- You’re building a full move system, not just handling one bureaucratic fire at a time. That upgrade is only $25 from this page.
