I still have one but if you are coming in to Mexico don't you have to stop to get it stamped? Only the one for 7 days or less is free from my understanding but it still needs to be stamped at the border.

For consistency, here is how I filled mine out. You guys will need to modify your depart dates.

Not sure if I understand your post but if you have purchased a 180 day FMM and it was stamped on a previous trip, you do not need it stamped again if it is still valid. Having it stamped is for folks that purchase the FMM online and then must have it stamped on the first entry to Mexico.

TRUE THAT

I have mine, but it is almost impossible to read the stamp and the date. I will have to stop and see what they say. I am staying 8 days, so I will have to pay. It is a small part of the trip expense.

On a better note, the Persian food is in the frig. Be sure to bring your appetite.

My wife will be making the Persian salad in the morning.

Leaving LA around 9:00 PM tomorrow.
Meeting Bob at the Shell around 4:30 AM.
In between will try to persuade the lady luck at Pechanga Casino to smile---as well as take a break from driving.

Really looking forward to this trip. A good group of people as usual.

A long report to be posted here later.
