question about obtaining RFC# online

I am trying to obtain an RFC# online using my CURP#.  I have my residente permanente and with my husband, purchased and own a home in Ajijic  My Spanish is ok, but I hit the question which asked  "Tiene fuente de ingresos en territorio nacional?"  which I translated as "do I have a source of income in the national territory?"  National territory means Mexico, right?  Here I have questions.  

My only income is monthly social security which is sent to a bank in the US and then I transfer down to a Mexican bank as needed.  To my thinking, this is not Mexican income.  However, when I answer "no" I cannot choose Mexico from the drop-down menu as to where I live.  If I answer "yes" Mexico as my residence country is filled in and then it asks for the date that my income began.  After that, I can select that I am retired and that is the source of my income.

I am unsure as to how I should be answering.  How have others answered these questions?

Thanks in advance.

Answer "No" and select the US. You complete the address of where you live in Mexico further up the form.

Gracias. Was able to complete and get my number!

I need to get the RFC number, too. However, I think that I will need to sell my apartment a few years later. And I also need to pay taxes on my income that I'm getting from outside Mexico.
Does that mean that I need to answer "Si" to "¿Tiene fuente de ingresos en territorio nacional?"
I wonder if answering "Si" makes the process of getting the RFC number harder or longer?
Or should I answer "No" now and then somehow fix the RFC later (if it's possible)?

You pay taxes to the country where your income originates. If living in Mexico and getting retirement or SS or other income from the US, you pay US taxes.

Why do you think so? AFAIK, you pay the taxes in the country where you're a fiscal resident. The US is a notable exception, because they always tax their citizens wherever they live, but most countries don't do that. (And I'm not a US citizen).

I'm not Canadian. It seems your country is an exclusion from the normal rules, too. See "Tax residence".

Can you suggest one?

Spencer McMullen, the attorney in Chapala, should be able to settle this question for you.

Well, that's some 350+ km from me.

So how about someone sharing the RFC# online link? Gracias.

You don't say where you're from, where you live or from where your income is derived.
I'd say you're a troll and I am now done with you.

Well, information doesn't have the boundaries :) I'm in Puerto Vallarta.

Oops. Can't delete. See below.
