... in response to visas from mex, posted by Goliath on Dec 16, 2001I guess you've been looking at the Mexican Matchmakers site. Guadalahara advertises itself as the "Silicon Valley" of Mexico and so there are lots of international companies there. If you work for Microsoft, John Deere, Nissan, etc, your company can simply write you a letter saying it is necessary for you to travel to the US for training and you get a visa issued that day! I've written a number of letters for people who work in the Mexican branch of a company I used to manage and they received the visa was almost instantly.
The truth is that most people in Guadalahara have a difficult time getting a visa - and as Partick has said a number of times here, most Mexicanas are very reluctant to list themselves in an agency - even though many may have an interest in marrying Americans. I've had women in Tijuana say it sounds like they'll be signing up to be a whore. Educated, traveled women are probably more likely to accept modern technology introduction methods than less educated people who are not plugged into high technology in their everyday lives.
