The first issue of The Isla Mujeres Magazine to
benefit Isla charities will be published next weekend! It will feature a
variety of talented writers and photographers & you can check out
the Table of Contents now.
Your support for this project would be greatly appreciated! If you buy an ad for your business, blog, event, or whatever, your $15 is donated to your favorite Isla charity. Individuals with nothing to promote are encouraged to buy an ad for their favorite charity. Ads will be on display until the end of March, when the next issue will be published, and they can be renewed for another three months for a $10 donation. Contact me at westofcuba@gmail.com
I'd like to thank those who have already bought ads: Sally Margolis of Picky Picky Designs, Steve Broin of Casa Sirena Hotel, Ed & Judy Sutherland of Casa Alegre, Kathy Ennis, Bruce Roberts of MVC B&B, and Diane White Daniel of Isla Mujeres Travel Stickers. They have made donations to Little Yellow School House, Isla Animals, Isla Mujeres Cats Need Help, Brazos Abiertos, and the Red Cross of Isla Mujeres. Please consider supporting their businesses!

There was a meeting to give information and calm concerns, at the city hall. It is noted that there are advantages to business taxpayers with incomes of less than 2 million pesos annually under the Tax Reform. Regarding the RIF, for the first ten years, those with little economic or administrative capacity will be incorporated, who do not use computers, and who have a vast majority of customers who do not ask for this invoice. There is a regime or option that they would only be required to submit their statements of payment and information for payment of these taxes every two months, calculating their IVA for payment in two month periods, ie Jan-Feb, March-April, etc., and making payment by the 17th of the month.(This was a confusing article to translate, and may not be entirely correct.)
