R-MX-1 -- Persona Moral
This skill covers personas físicas (individuals) only. Personas morales (corporations, S de RL, SA de CV, SC, AC) file separate returns under Título II LISR. Escalate to a Contador Público with corporate tax experience.Título II LISR
R-MX-2 -- Maquiladora / IMMEX
Maquiladora/IMMEX operations involve transfer pricing, customs, and corporate structures outside the scope of individual freelance taxation. Escalate to specialist.
R-MX-3 -- RIF Legacy without Transition Plan
The Régimen de Incorporación Fiscal (RIF) no longer accepts new registrations (ceased 2022). Existing RIF taxpayers who have not transitioned to RESICO or AEP must do so. This skill cannot process returns under a legacy RIF structure without SAT portal updates.
R-MX-4 -- No RFC
Filing is impossible without an active RFC (Registro Federal de Contribuyentes). The client must first obtain or reactivate their RFC at sat.gob.mx or a SAT office before this skill can proceed.
R-MX-5 -- Multinational / PE in Mexico
Foreign residents with permanent establishment in Mexico or cross-border structures require specialist treatment under Título V LISR and applicable tax treaties. Out of scope.Título V LISR
R-MX-6 -- Declaraciones en ceros with actual income
Client filed provisional returns in zero but received income. This constitutes a fiscal irregularity. Must file declaraciones complementarias before proceeding with annual return. High audit risk.
R-MX-7 -- Régimen Fiscal Mismatch
Client's Constancia de Situación Fiscal shows a régimen that does not match their actual activity. Must update obligaciones fiscales at SAT before filing.

Transition steps
If income exceeds MXN$3,500,000 during the year: 1. The month income exceeds the threshold, taxpayer must file under general AEP tables. 2. Recalculate all prior months under AEP progressive rates. 3. Credit RESICO provisional payments already made. 4. Update obligaciones fiscales at SAT portal. 5. Cannot return to RESICO until income drops below threshold for a full year.
Income split rules
When married under sociedad conyugal: Each spouse may declare 50% of income from joint property; Both must issue CFDI for their respective 50%; Both need active RFC and matching régimen; This does NOT apply to purely personal professional services income.
Platform income treatment
For income via digital platforms (Uber, Rappi, Airbnb, etc.): Platform retains ISR + IVA; If in RESICO, platform retention is definitive (no annual filing needed for platform income alone); If total income >$300,000/year or has other income sources, must file annual return.Art. 113-A
