Here are some additional things to keep in mind about the Mexican Survival Certificate:

• The certificate is not a guarantee of financial assistance or other forms of aid.
• The certificate is only valid for one year. You will need to reapply for a new certificate if you need it for longer than one year.
• The certificate does not automatically grant you permission to stay in Mexico. You will still need to apply for a visa or other immigration status if you want to stay in the country.
