My husband and I and our 8 yr old daughter are coming the first week of October and have private tours with Jorge and Maury for our check it out visit and we are so excited! We live in Northern Ontario Canada (rural wilderness) and we moved up here in 2014 from South Western Ontario (loads of people and amenities) and we had to really adjust to things moving in slow motion if at all, with highway closures for many reasons, mail being super slow, having to order online and wait and bugs, etc that we never knew existed so maybe the last move was getting us ready for Panama! LOL

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Sounds like your move to Panama will be easy peasy for you!

[@HypocriticYT]

tired of the blackflies and high taxes? Panama is beautiful and slow paced but what is best are its people.

Hi Jackie do you need an immigration lawyer to do your paperwork in Panama?

[@terryashley4674]

Thanks, Jackie. I finally got the ball rolling by setting up an account to get my FBI report. I should have it sometime this week. The website says it costs $50 (not apostilled).

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

most channelors charge $50. congrats on getting the ball rolling!

I called the California FBI channeler office they can get our report in 24 hours, not 1 hour.

[@Vivi30908]

OK. I thought the letter of income verification even from social security should say lifetime income.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Call other channellers, they can provide your FBI report in 1 hour or less.

[@cl2385]

We only saw a few here in CA. and we still would need to come in for the fingerprints. We are fine with the 24hr, just surprised there are not more of them.@@PanamaRelocationTours

Can the visa process for permanent residency be started while we are on the group tour? Or is there not enough time for this? Thank you! We are booked for the Dec 13 week long tour.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

There is not enough time. See details here: help.panamarelocationtours.com/article/108-can-i-get-a-residency-visa-during-a-tour

[@karenbutler2977]

??? Once the permanent visa is ready, how long do I have to return to Panama to get it… Do I have to personally pick it up or does the attorney pick it up for me?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Your attorney can pick up the resolution but you need to come to Panama to get the visa asap.

[@karenbutler2977]

@@PanamaRelocationTours I was wondering how long I had because I’d wait til the kids were out of school before returning if that was possible. Maybe I’ll do like you recommended and just wait and do everything once we move. 3 plane tickets twice, and accommodations will get expensive.

[@mikejackson1717]

I have RAILROAD RETIREMENT tier 1and 2. It's our social security because we don't pay into social security on the railroad. Is that acceptable?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

If it's a lifetime income, it qualifies for the Pensionado visa.

[@chewey1963]

Jackie, my husband and I Sent our Doc to be Apostille on July 20th 2023 to Washington DC , we were hoping to have it returned by sep 29, seeing are moving to Panama with family at That time. So far nothing , can we forgo that process and head down to Miami to the consulate to do the authentication instead seeing it takes only a few days /

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

an apostile takes 3-4 months. It's much better to send the documents to the Panama Consulate where it only takes 3-4 DAYS for authentication

[@merlinsreturn]

What is the Amazon shipping like in Panama? I use a lot of supplements rather than Rx medications.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

You can buy supplements in Panama. To get them shipped to Panama using a mail forwarding service, you will pay about $4 a pound.

[@Sunflower00001]

Is there another way to find out how much certain meds cost without going there? When I went to the tour, I did not unfortunately have my list of meds. Thx

Good evening ma I'm from Nigeria, I will like to visit panama December the problem I'm having is there's no panama embassy in Nigeria.

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

you must go to the Panama Embassy in South Africa to get a visa to visit Panama. They can give you more details but I believe you are only allowed to stay in Panama for 30 days, then you must go back to Nigeria.

Hi​@@PanamaRelocationTours

[@liselarose8643]

...approx. what is the cost of obtainingthanks a visa?

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

The costs for a visa depends on which visa and which attorney you use - estimate $1200 for a pensionado visa

[@JewelRana-jd2fp]

Hello mam Csn you suggest me, How to i go panama visite visa🙏 I have Bangladesh passport. But i am work in now saudi almost 4 years running. Plz mam suggest me🙏

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

contact the Panama Consulate nearest you to see what options you have. YOu need a visa to visit Panama.

[@cynthiabaumhauer8403]

Hi, Jackie. I watched your last Saturday live stream about getting the Pensionada visa. You stressed that the proof of income letter (in my case this would be Social Security) must state the the income is for life. I've gone to the SSA website and looked at the proof of income letter the SSA offers and it says: Type of income is Retirement Income but nowhere does it say "for life." Will I need to request a special letter that has this wording? Thanks, Cynthia Baumhauer

[@PanamaRelocationTours]

Panama knows that Social Security retirement income is for life.

[@cynthiabaumhauer8403]

Thanks, I assumed that, but always best to be sure!

[@pnachtwey]

I was on PRT 236 in ealy March. I have a temporary vista. I want my pensionado visa and to fund what John, the tour guide, called a landing spot.
