1. Mexico Verifying Work Authorization Applications
Update from Nair & Co.’s International Human Resources Team
(Bristol, UK) - The Mexican government’s immigration agency, the National Institute of Immigration (INM), has
started contacting business entities that have filed work authorization applications for foreign workers to verify
information provided in the work authorization applications. Delays might occur in processing of work
authorization applications if the INM is not able to contact the concerned employers or their legal representatives,
reports the Nair & Co.’s International Human Resources Team.
Mexican Officials inquiring about work authorization applications are asking employers about:




Foreign employee’s nationality;
The position and title of the foreign employ;
The type of work in which the foreign employee would be engaged; and
The duration of stay of foreign employee.
To avoid delays in processing such applications, employers that have filed work authorization applications over the
past few months should have a company representative on hand and able to answer questions regarding foreign
employees, suggests Nair & Co.’s International Human Resources team.
