The review precess for the month of October 2018 and every month after that will be the end of the following month.

Simplified option for the issuing of CFDI´s without the need of issuing a payment receipt CFDI

Taxpayers wanting to use this simplified option and avoid having to issue a payment receipt CFDI, must meet the following two requirements

1. The CFDI must state ¨PUE¨ as method of payment (Payment in one installment)
2. The payment of the CFDI must be received before the 17^th of the following month.

It is important to consider that if the payment of the CFDI is not received by the 17^th of the following month, the original of the CFDI must be cancelled & re-issued with the method of payment as ¨PPD¨ (Defered Payment)
