Can I request the school record of my minor children while I am in Mexico?

If your children finished their elementary and secondary education in the United States and for some reason returned to Mexico to live, it is important to process the Transfer Document for Binational Migrant Student, which facilitates their access to Mexican schools.

This document is issued by the Mexican Consulate and it ratifies in one step the school cycles completed from 1 to 9 in the United States, so you can immediately transfer your children to Mexican elementary schools. It is only issued for the elementary and secondary levels; however, it is not an essential requirement.

This will allow children and young people to receive education in elementary and secondary levels even if they do not have a stamp in school documents. Please bear in mind the documents no longer need to have an official translation.
