The Retirement Fund Managers (Afores) have the function of safeguarding resources so that when they reach adulthood they can transform into a pension and live in the best way. Given this, there are some apps to increase that savings, such is the case of one that we will talk about below.
It is an application aimed only at those Mexicans who live in the United States, but have an Afore account or to add contributions to the accounts of their loved ones, reported the National Commission of the Retirement Savings System (Consar).
In this sense, here we will explain which platform (available only in the US) is that allows you to send money from the neighboring country, so that they can be accumulated in your Afore accounts in Mexico.
What are the steps to use it?
1.- The interested party must download the app called uLink, or go directly to the ulinkremit.com site.
2.- Once there, you must register with your name, email, address, telephone number and date of birth.
3.- Choose the option “send to Afore” and select “add a contact from Afore”.
4.- Then you must register the recipient of the shipment, that is, the account holder and place your CURP.
