    Do you own property down there?

    Yes. I bought in 2010 and filed Forms 3520A & 3520 last year (for 2010). This year I will do the same as well as filing the new Form 8938, which will get filed with the 1040. FYI, Forms 3520A & 3520 are separate filings from the 1040. 3520A is due March 15 and 3520 is due on the regular...

    Do you own property down there?

    >>>coward !!<<<< Yep!! I may re-post it or a modified version. I just want to be careful with what I say on this matter. And I've never been asked at the border, either.

    Changed my mind -- don't want to post my comment here after all.

    Rx help

    Hi Mark, thanks for the referral. We've gotten pretty good pretty good prices on asthma inhalers through Pharmacia Descuetas. And we've gotten something else at Cosmos, but I don't remember what it was -- they had the best price even without your discount! @ Mondone -- We did check into the...

    Thanks Landshark. Sounds great. I don't mind price shopping when we are there. Just wanted to make sure it is significantly cheaper than here. Sounds like it is.

    ... Or, does everybody just have insurance good enough to afford it in US pharmacies?

    Just wondering if anyone knows how much it costs to buy Lipitor or the generic equivalent in Puerto Peñasco? The doctor just changed my husband's medication from generic Zocor to generic Lipitor. He could get the 1st one for $17 per month, but this new one costs over $100 per month. (Our...

    Calling the U.S. from Mexico

    MagicJack lets you call for free. But if you don't want to buy a MagicJack just for one call, there are places around town that will let you use their phone. The ones I can think of off the top of my head are Max's and Latitude 31. I'm not sure if they would have a problem with a 20 - 30...

    DISH Network coverage in Rocky Point

    We travel with our Dish receiver. When we are away from Austin, we lose the local channels. I'm not sure how far away you have to be before you lose them, but I know we can't get them in Mississippi or in Peñasco. Haven't tried very many places because we only recently started getting local...

    New Live Weather Station for Puerto Peñasco!

    Yes, I use Casa Weez, too. But sometimes it goes down. I guess all do from time to time. Also, if it were on Weather.com I could let my "Weather Bug" use a real Peñasco site rather than Gila Bend or wherever else Weather.com seems to think is a reasonable substitute for Peñasco.

    New Live Weather Station for Puerto Peñasco!

    With "official Weather Service sanctioning and status," will it become part of the Weather.com or Weather Underground systems?

    Pay TelMex bill online with US credit card?

    Maybe I was just blind before, but I just now noticed this "sidebar" alongside the credit card payment page. http://www.telmexusa.com/us/retail-mel-payinusa_es.html which takes you right to the TelMex USA online payment option! All I need is the customer # (as mentioned in prior posts). I...

    Pay TelMex bill online with US credit card?

    @ El Tiburon - Good info. I'll check it out. @playaperro - I'm already registered with CFE. When I checked this afternoon, I saw the section for Online Services (en linea), but I couldn't find the pay online section. I think I saw it before (several months ago), but at that time it required...

    Magic jack phone

    When you port your number to Magic Jack it ports it from your existing phone service to Magic Jack. This is not a good option if you want to keep your land line. We did port our number because we wanted to drop our $40 per month landline but not lose our # that we've had for 20 years. It was...

    Pay TelMex bill online with US credit card?

    Interesting. How did you find out TelMex had a US office?

    Pay TelMex bill online with US credit card?

    That's what I had thought previously. Maybe I'm just not interpreting their website payment page correctly. Also not sure why they would care where the credit card is from. They do work internationally. (As long as I'm will to pay the international fee...)

    Pay TelMex bill online with US credit card?

    We are using a bill paying service, but I noticed our TelMex bill has not yet been paid. When I log into my TelMex account, I see where you can pay your bill by credit card. Can this be done with a US credit card? It says they accept Visa, MasterCard & AmEx. It gives me an option of...

    Magic jack phone

    I like to compare Magic Jack service to cell phone service. Sometimes it's good, sometimes not. For MJ it depends on how good your internet connection is; for cell phones, it depends on your proximity to cell towers. I have not used the new Magic Jack plus, because we bought 5 years of...
