Mexico COMAR is required to undertake at least one interview with the applicant and to use interpreters if the applicant is unable to communicate in Spanish. Once COMAR delivers its opinion, INM makes a formal statelessness status determination in writing and, where the person concerned is found to be stateless, immediately issues a certificate to this effect. A person recognized as stateless is issued a permanent residence card between five days and one month after the certificate of statelessness is issued. He or she may subsequently apply for other identity and travel documents. If the applicant is found not to be stateless, he or she may appeal that decision or apply for a different legal status under the law, such as that provided by the temporary visitor card given for humanitarian reasons. These reasons include being an unaccompanied child, having a close family member with a serious medical condition in Mexico, being the victim of or witness to a crime in Mexico, family reunification etc. Following the SDP, and independent of its conclusions, the person may apply for refugee status.
