It turns out that my grandmother was born in Mexico and my father had dual citizenship but at that time you had either to be Mexican or American. He chose to be American. Now my wife and I decided to look at retiring in Mexico. Wow, my daughter was doing some genealogy research. She came across my grandmother‘s birth certificate. The problem was my father had divorced my mother early in my life so I really didn’t have much of his influence. We had always heard rumors that my grandmother’s born in Mexico. I receive my temporal and then realize that I was eligible for Mexican citizenship. I went through the process and now have dual citizenship. There’s been lots of struggles as I have had to deal with having two different curb numbers and having difficulty getting my INE and my passport, but those are simple things will overcome. I’m really grateful for my Mexican heritage. My grandmother‘s birth certificate states she was born in 1905 before the Revolution. As it turns out, my grandmother was part of the Mormons, who came to Chihuahua to set up a colony. Poncho Via forced them to leave Mexico, a very interesting story, but I’m very grateful to be living here in Mexico.
