Overview

  • The work stoppage began at 8:00 a.m. on Oct. 14 across 162 SAT offices, leaving many walk-in counters closed and appointments canceled or rebooked.
  • Employees demand application of the 12% raise tied to the minimum wage effective Jan. 1, plus fixes for long hours without overtime pay, vacation limits, supply shortages, and inadequate support for pregnant or lactating workers.
  • In Mexico City, staff carried out intermittent blockages near SAT facilities on Paseo de la Reforma, with participants wearing red or black as a protest signal.
  • Online tax services continued operating, while media and experts cautioned about possible phishing and other cyberfraud attempts targeting confused taxpayers during the slowdown.
  • Organizers pressed for a formal dialogue and warned of escalations absent an internal response, as President Claudia Sheinbaum characterized the participants as a small group and said officials are addressing the matter.
