What is the minimum income requirement for the Mexico DNV?

AI Answer
The minimum income requirement for the Mexico Temporary Resident Visa (DNV) is $2,600 USD per month for the past six months. This income must be consistent and verifiable through bank statements or pay stubs. Alternatively, you can qualify by demonstrating a minimum bank balance. This requires maintaining an average balance equivalent to 250 days of the general minimum wage for the past twelve months. As of 2024, Mexico's general minimum wage is approximately $14.17 USD per day, so this translates to roughly $3,542.50 USD in a savings account over the last year. For each dependent (spouse, child), you'll need an additional 25% of the primary applicant's income or bank balance. So, for a couple, the income requirement jumps to $3,250 USD monthly, or a bank balance of around $4,428 USD. My advice: Always aim to exceed these minimums slightly, as consulates can have some discretion. Having a buffer simplifies the process.
